Oldham and the Planning Portal

Apply online

You can apply for planning permission from your computer through the Planning Portal.

The Portal's service will also let you:

• Create a site location plan (compulsory for all applications)
• Attach supporting documents (such as plans or photographs)
• Pay the application fee online

Oldham Council has integrated our systems with the Portal so you can complete the whole process online and pay for the application electronically.

Why use the online system?

The Portal offers a number of benefits over the paper forms.

• The system automatically checks that you have filled in the correct sections of the form-a suprising number of forms are incorrectly filled out.
• If you are submitting electronic copies of drawings you need only send one copy – saving you time and money.
• If you regularly submit applications, your details are saved and recalled when you login, again saving time.

New users

You will need to register to start using the application service. Before you start, you may want to read the online guide to using the system
