Building permit fees, explained simply
Understand which fees are involved in getting a building permit and how each is determined. AutoRize surfaces the fees and deadlines relevant to your project, with reminders.
Obtaining a building permit involves several distinct fees, from the urban planning certificate to the avize and the permit itself. On this page we explain, at a general level, which fees are involved and how they are determined, without inventing amounts or deadlines, because these are set by the primărie and by the issuing institutions.
Which fees are involved
The process usually involves the fee for the urban planning certificate, the fees for the avize requested through the certificate, and the fee for the building permit itself. Depending on the project, other fees required by issuing institutions may apply. The amount of each fee is set by the competent authority, in line with the legislation and local council decisions.
How the permit fee is calculated
As a general mechanism, the building permit fee is calculated as a percentage of the declared or estimated value of the works, in line with the legislation in force and local council decisions. The exact percentage and how it is applied are set by the primărie, which is why the final amount differs from one locality and one project to another.
Aviz fees and deadlines
Aviz fees and issuing deadlines are set separately by each issuing institution and by the primărie. The number and type of avize depend on what the urban planning certificate requires for your project, so the list of applicable fees and deadlines can vary. That is why it helps to have the official fees and deadlines relevant to your case in one place.
Why the amounts differ
There is no single amount that applies to all projects. The fees depend on the type of works, the declared value, the avize required, and the decisions of local authorities. AutoRize does not replace your authorized architect or proiectant, but it helps you see clearly which fees and official deadlines are relevant to your project.
