Building Safety Certificate for Schools

Every school needs a valid Building Safety Certificate to confirm that its building is safe for students and staff. The certificate is issued according to the guidelines of the National Building Code (NBC) and is valid for one financial year, so schools need to apply again each year.

  4. Form 13
  5. Approved drawing of the school building
  6. Fire Safety Certificate from the competent authority

How to apply

  3. Check the fee for your case in the Fee Structure.
  4. Put all documents together and make three complete sets.
