The Lagos State Government through the Lagos State Physical Planning Permit Authority (LASPPPA) is granting a 90 days amnesty on penal fees paid for As-Built Structures seeking building approval within the state.
Starting from 2nd of May, 2024, you can now commence your building approval for structures already in use without attracting the usual 4x Penal Fee.
As-Built structures refers to structures that their construction has been completed or such buildings that has been occupied for a number of years.
Penal fee is a fee charged on the processing of building approval/permit for as-built structures, paid into government account.
Before, if you were to apply for building approval for as-built structures you would be liable to pay a penal fee which would be 4times the assessment fee calculated for you.
For example,
If your calculated assessment fee was N453, 541.50k then your penal fee would be N1,814,166.00k. (One Million, Eight Hundred and Fourteen Thousand, One Hundred and Sixty-Six Naira Only)
And this, you must pay!
But luckily, the Lagos State Government has decided to exempt owners of building already in use from paying this usual penal fee and the period of this amnesty is going to be for 90 days only starting from May 2nd 2024 till Oct 31st, 2024.
You should hurry and begin the process of getting a Building Approval/Permit for your property, because once this amnesty period is over, who knows what the government has in store?
