WA Specifications

You will require this permit if you intend to conduct building work. The permit must be obtained from the relevant Agency, generally the local government, prior to work commencing.

You must obtain a Certificate of Design Compliance (CDC) if you intend to construct a building or incidental structure. Your CDC must be in an approved form and you must include a statement from your building surveyor that your building will comply with the applicable standard if your building is completed following your current plans and specifications.

The Building Regulations have more information about other details your CDC must include and what your surveyor must do when signing the building certificate.

Building Permit

To be eligible for this permit you must:

  • obtain planning approval and any other required approvals, including approval for installation of a sewage treatment apparatus (if required)
  • provide a certificate of design compliance for the building or structure signed by a building surveyor
  • provide each technical certificate signed by a specialist that the building surveyor has relied on to sign the certificate of design compliance
  • provide a copy of the plans and specifications for your building or structure
  • notify the Heritage Council of Western Australia (if relevant)
  • provide details of the builder who will carry out the work
  • pay any applicable building services levies
  • provide any other information required on the application form
  • pay the application fee.

There may be additional requirements before approval is granted to your application. These requirements will vary dependent on factors such as the future purpose of the building or any other requirements dictated by the relevant permit authority.
