New online system has been launched for building permits and control services in Dubai

It was announced on Friday that Dubai offers building permits and control services now through a new online system.

The system, which is in line with the most recent version of the Dubai Construction Code, is a result of the Dubai Municipality's attempts to improve the emirate's reputation as a global leader in embracing cutting-edge construction technology.

The new system will provide smart and integrated services and solutions while implementing automated checks using Building Information Modelling (BIM), which is a digital representation of a building or infrastructure.
