The City of North Las Vegas Building Safety Division performs plan reviews, issue permits and conduct inspections for conformity to the North Las Vegas Municipal Code and adopted construction codes. We strive to provide the highest customer service by creating innovative processes to accommodate the services needed by our community.

Permits, Certificates of Occupancy and Temporary Certificates of Occupancy are issued electronically.


Online Permits

Many permits can be obtained using our Citizen Self-Service (CSS) Portal.


Certificates of Occupancy

For Certificates of Occupancy, send a request to buildingsafetyinquiries@cityofnorthlasvegas.com.

For new single-family construction, your permit will become the Certificate of Occupancy upon receiving an approved final building inspection. You will need to print a copy of the permit for your records.

Inspections can be requested using the Citizen Self-Service (CSS) portal. Some scopes may be performed by video. Your inspector will confirm the method prior to the inspection.
