Planning checklists

Before you submit a planning application, use our planning checklists to make sure that you include all the information and documents needed for the type of application you are making. If you don't, it may invalidate your application. 

Most applications require a fee to be paid when you submit them. Use the Planning Portal’s guide to fees to estimate the fee you’ll have to pay when you submit your application. 

To meet high fire safety standards in Southwark, major developments must complete a fire statement.

See the Planning Portal's guidance. It explains how to fill in your application form. We advise getting pre-application advice, as planning applications are complex.
