Planning applications one-stop-shop

Make a planning application

Visit the Making a planning application page (below) to select the type of application you need from the menu. You can then see all the validation requirements you need to consider when making your application.

To increase efficiency and avoid delays in processing please submit planning applications online:

• Please submit applications electronically on the Planning Portal or by email to planning.technical@westsuffolk.gov.uk
• If submitting by email, payment can be made online or details for BACs can be provided. Telephone payments can also be made by phoning our customer service team on 01284 763233
• Please submit all correspondence using our public access system or by email to planning.technical@westsuffolk.gov.uk

Please note that, while the validation requirements indicate all application types, some are covered by specific regimes. The documents listed there are those the legislation asks for and not specifically local validation requirements. Applications such as hazardous substances consents and prior notifications are not subject to local validation requirements.

Fees can be found on the Planning Portal - a guide to the fees for planning applications in England.

If you have any problems with the system please email planning.help@westsuffolk.gov.uk
