Changes to Development Permit numbering 2025

Starting in 2025, there will be a change in the development permit reference numbers.  The new system streamlines the process by ensuring that the same reference number is used for both the application and the development permit.

This means that:

  • Application Identifier and Development Permit Identifier will follow the same format, making it easier to track the progress of both the application and the permit.
  • For example, an application submitted in 2025 might have the identifier PA2025/0001, and the corresponding development permit will be DP2025/0001.
  • The system will remain the same for applications submitted prior to 2024. For instance, PA2024/0345 will result in the corresponding permit identifier DP2024/0345.

By using a consistent reference number, clients and customers will only need to remember one reference number to manage both the application and permit.  This streamlined approach enhances efficiency and helps maintain clear, organised records.
