Reminder: Introduction of Fee for Reviewing the Explanatory Note in Riga

We would like to remind you that starting from December 1, 2022, a fee has been introduced in Riga for the examination of the Explanatory Note (receiving approval for a construction project) at the City Development Department of the Riga City Council. This fee is applicable to both individuals and legal entities.

The introduction of the fee is stipulated by the binding regulations of the Riga City Council No. RD-22-164-sn "On the municipal fee for issuing a building permit and the municipal fee for the examination of the construction project, making a note in the explanatory note," which came into effect on December 1, 2022.

The new regulations specify the fee for reviewing the Explanatory Note (approval of a construction project).

Fee amounts:

• For the installation or construction of an electronic communications network – 20 euros;
• In other cases – 50 euros for individuals, 100 euros for legal entities (If the construction clients are both individuals and legal entities simultaneously, the fee is calculated at the rate specified for legal entities).

Payment details:

Riga City Municipality

Reg. No. 90011524360

Luminor Bank AS Latvian branch

Account No. LV82RIKO0020100000002

To avoid the situation where the application for reviewing the Explanatory Note (approval of a construction project) is returned for correction (waiting for the client), a payment document confirming the payment of the fee must be attached to the application for a specific case in the Building Information System (BIS).
