Response Update: License and Permit Expiration Dates

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Department of
Buildings has been making sure that permitted work is able to
continue while keeping you updated on any guideline changes
related to the construction industry. Here are some important
changes to practices that were in effect as part of New York
City's COVID-19 response:

Now that regular construction work has resumed, licenses/registrations and permits will

no longer

be
automatically extended. All licenses/registrations and permits
issued by the Department with an original expiration date on or
after

August 7, 2020

will expire on that original
expiration date per Mayoral Emergency Executive Order No. 134.

Licenses/registrations and permits that were subject to Mayoral Emergency Executive
Order No. 107, subsequent orders, and Local Law 57 of 2020,
which were automatically extended through

August 6, 2020

,
will expire according to the schedule below. For more
information, please review our Service Notice.

for a license/registration or permit prior to the new expiration
date.

Licensees/registrants must satisfy all
requirements for renewal before submitting their application.

Licenses/registrations
expiration dates will be based on their original expiration dates on
the next renewal.

The Department strongly
encourages any licensees/registrants who are eligible and can satisfy
the requirements for renewal of their licenses/registrations and permits
to immediately start the process of submitting their applications for
renewal.

found at www.nyc.gov/doblicensing. Permits filed in

jobs filed in the Buildings Information System (BIS), permit renewals
with no change must be submitted in eFiling. Permit renewals
