How it Works

Permits may be applied for electronically or via paper application. Electronic applications can be made at any time (apply for a General permit); or you may submit in person at DPS offices during normal business hours. A non-refundable filing fee must be paid at application whether paid electronically or in person. Acceptable methods of payment are credit card, check and e-Check (if submitted electronically). Cash is only accepted if paid in person. Please visit our eServices page to learn about performing tasks electronically.

Upon completion of your electronic application the program will provide instructions to submit your plans electronically.

How it Works

The application and site plan are reviewed. If additional information is needed, DPS will contact the customer directly. In the unusual event that an appropriate reviewer is not available, the application will be reviewed at the next possible time and may not be the same day.

How it Works

Once the payment is processed and the review is approved, the permit will be issued and made available online. If the application review and approval is completed while you wait, a paper copy of the permit will be provided to the customer.
