We know the building permit process can be intimidating at times. That’s why the City of Miami Beach Building Department has developed this Interactive Permit Guide. By selecting a category below, you’ll find a virtual tour of the most common elements found in properties. Simply select an element and the pop-up box will guide you to “additional information” regarding necessary plans, reviews and inspections for some of our most common permits. Your project will still need to undergo a formal permit review. But, in time, we hope to expand our online capabilities. Please check back periodically for changes.
