Certain projects will require a building consent, resource consent, or both.
To check whether you might need a building consent, a helpful starting place is the interactive building consent tool produced by the Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment.
Building consent applications are reviewed by a planner who can highlight any potential resource consent requirements. See below for more detail about building and resource consents. If you have any questions, our Duty Planner and Duty Builder are here to help.
