    I'm wondering if anyone can help me on this.... I'd like to know what the planning fee would be for a change of use from warehouse to commercial use on an existing property of approx 186m.sq?

    €3.60/m2 so 186 x 3.6 = €669.60

    Don't forget the Fire Safety Certificate application fee of €2.90/m2 and the DAC of €800.

    I hadn't thought of that. Thanks.

    Seems very expensive to get a DAC - where do I apply for that?

    Building Control will give you the forms and an application for a Disabled Access Certificate costs €800 per building standard fee. Money for old rope.

    It's ridiculous that it's a flat fee - the premises I'm looking at renting is a small one for a business that at best, will create fairly low profits. There will be 2-3 rooms in it & yet I have to pay the same fee as, say a 100 bedroom hotel, whose flooor area & turnover would be hundreds of times bigger!

    Money for old rope indeed.

    I don't suppose there is any way of reducing these fees? I'm looking at the guts of 2 grand before I even start the fit-out & my budget is very limited.
