As of 5pm on Friday, March 10, 2023 the City of Port Orange will no longer be accepting building permit applications through the City's online form. Applicants will be able to use the City's new Online Portal to apply for permits online, request inspections on active permits, and make payments.

You can watch live updates of the status of your permit. When the permit is completed you will be able to pay and print the permit right from your homes or office. No more paper copies.
If not please proceed with Creating an Account.
If you are pulling a permit as an Owner Builder, you will still need to bring in the Owner Builder Affidavit.

Engineers, Architects, and Surveyors can easily email the contractors Digitally Signed and Sealed Drawings as PDFs. Digitally Signed and Sealed Plans must be uploaded in their original digital format. Scanned Digitally Sealed Plans will not be accepted as scanning removes the digital signature and seal.
Every engineered drawing uploaded for review to the City of Port Orange SmartGov Portal must have a Digital Seal and Signature combo. All design professionals will also need to have their identity authenticated by a third-party Certification Authority per State Statue 471.025 and Florida Administrative Code 61G15-23.003.
Local Engineers, Architects and Surveyors are using Adobe Entrust, IdenTrust, Cosign, DocuSign, VeriSign and GlobalSign most frequently. These companies validate your identity then have you download a digital certificate to your computer, use software or they will send you a USB drive with a token key or serial number.
