Permitting &
Planning Support
We manage permits, approvals and regulatory requirements, helping your project begin on solid ground and remain compliant throughout the process.
The approvals that make construction possible.
Every construction project in Greece requires permits, planning approvals and compliance with local, regional and national regulations. We manage the entire process, from initial feasibility checks through to required approvals and compliance documentation, so you can focus on design and construction decisions rather than administrative procedures.
Four clear phases. Permits, documents and approvals coordinated for you.
Assessment
Review of the site, zoning status and applicable regulations. We identify what permits are required and flag any constraints early.
Preparation
Compilation of all necessary documentation, drawings, environmental reports and engineering studies. Everything is assembled to meet submission standards.
Submission
Filing of applications with the relevant authorities. We handle communication, revisions and follow-up through to required approvals.
Compliance
Ongoing monitoring of regulatory requirements throughout the construction phase. We ensure the project remains compliant from ground-breaking through to final inspection.
Permits, approvals and compliance documentation.
Building permit applications
We prepare and submit building permit applications to the relevant planning authority, ensuring all documentation, drawings and calculations meet current requirements.
Zoning and land-use verification
Before design work begins, we confirm what is permitted on your plot under current zoning rules, building coefficients and local planning restrictions.
Environmental and archaeological approvals
Where required, we coordinate environmental studies or archaeological procedures and manage the relevant submissions.
Structural and fire safety compliance
We ensure that all structural designs and fire safety measures meet the applicable codes and that the required certifications are in place before and after construction.
Connection permits and utility coordination
We manage applications for water, electricity, sewerage and telecommunications connections, coordinating with utility providers to avoid delays.
Completion certificates and final sign-off
After construction, we prepare and submit all documentation required to obtain the completion certificate, including as-built drawings, inspection reports and compliance declarations.
Every place has its rules.
We know how to work through them.
Permitting requirements differ between urban Athens and island municipalities. We work across both contexts, understanding the specific procedures, timelines and documentation each authority expects.
Whether you are building a private residence, a commercial property or a hospitality venue, we handle the regulatory path so you can move forward with clarity.
Common questions about permitts and approvals.
In most cases, yes. Structural changes, facade alterations and changes of use require permits. We can advise on what applies to your specific project.
Timelines vary by municipality and project type. A straightforward residential permit may take a few weeks, while complex projects in restricted areas can take several months. We set realistic expectations from the start.
Yes. We work across Athens, Paros, Antiparos and other Cycladic islands, and we are familiar with the local planning offices and their specific requirements.
We review the reasons for rejection, prepare any required amendments and resubmit. In our experience, rejections are usually avoidable with proper preparation.
Yes. For sites in archaeologically sensitive areas, we coordinate the required surveys, supervise any excavation work and manage communication with the archaeological service.
Yes. We can begin with feasibility checks, zoning verification and preliminary consultations while the design is still being developed. This often saves time later.
