Brampton Building and Business PortalFrequently Asked QuestionsThe services that are available on the Brampton Building and Business Portal are as follows.
Permit Applications
A faster and easier way to apply and pay for building permits online.
As of November 2026, new features on the portal include the ability to:
- Request and pay for a Transfer of Ownership
- Request and pay for a Permit Extension
- Submit a Building Inquiry
Property Search
Customers can search for property information or check the status of your permit application on Brampton Maps. This function is useful for checking the status of permit application when it is being reviewed by our Plans Examiner team. Once your permit is issued, you’ll be able to see the status of your inspections on the portal.
Inspection Booking

Permit Number and
Authorization Key to book an inspection without creating an account.
Document
Services
Customers can make a request for documentation or drawings from the Building Division as a guest or a registered user. Guest services are available under the Non-Registered Services button at
www.brampton.ca/bbportal. This is a
useful feature if you do not plan to apply for permit applications with the Building Division and the only service you want to use is to purchase documents or drawings.
Signs
The City of Brampton places a high value on the community’s appearance and safety. To maintain an attractive appearance and ensure a safe environment, the City regulates signs to avoid visual clutter and ensure traffic and pedestrian safety. Customers can apply and pay for sign permits online, including portable/mobile signs.
PRE vs Official Permit:
When applying for a permit on the portal, the first submission you make will begin with PRE in the permit number and it will appear under My Submissions on the portal. The PRE phase is an administrative intake check to ensure your application is complete.
Once your PRE application is accepted and you have paid the permit fee deposit, it will appear below My Permit Applications on the portal. The formal, in-depth zoning and building review occurs during this stage. Your application may be subject to additional comments or required revisions once the full review is underway.
