Building Use Change Permit, Report and Registry Change Application

Procedure

Procedure

1. 01

   Check the register use and the target use: Check the current use of the floor or unit and any illegal-building mark in the building register, then decide which item of Table 1 of the Enforcement Decree the new use falls under. A Category 2 neighborhood living facility manufacturing shop must stay within the floor area and emission facility standards of Table 1; beyond them it is treated as a factory.

2. 02

   Decide permit, report or register change: Compare the facility group numbers in Article 14(5) of the Enforcement Decree: a higher group needs a permit, a lower group needs a report, and the same group needs a building register change application. Changing from the neighborhood living facility group to a factory in the industrial group is a change to a higher group and requires a permit.

3. 03

   Prepare the application and attachments: Use Form No. 1-4 of the Enforcement Rule of the Building Act for a permit, Form No. 6 for a report, and the building mark change application for a change within the same group. A permit or report attaches the post-change floor plan and drawings showing changes to fireproofing, fire prevention, evacuation or building equipment; the permit authority checks the pre-change plan against the building register.

4. 04

   Submit to the si/gun/gu and handle supplements: Submit to the building department of the si/gun/gu where the building is located, or electronically through Seumteo. The permit authority checks compliance with relevant laws and issues the permit or report certificate; the legal processing period for a building mark change application is 7 days, and any supplement request is answered within the deadline.

5. 05

   Use approval and business registration: If the floor area of the changed part totals 100㎡ or more, apply for use approval; once approved, the si/gun/gu corrects the register entry ex officio according to the use approval certificate. After confirming the corrected register use, proceed with food manufacturing registration or factory-related applications.

If the register use is not checked before signing a lease or starting interior work, the registration stage may demand supplements for a use mismatch and delay the business start date.
