How to use this page

Three checks before acting on a local result

Confirm the permit authority. This page is scoped to Boston, MA. If a property is outside city limits or in a special district, confirm the local authority before using this as a planning path.

Keep permits and incentives separate. A rebate or utility incentive does not replace permit review, and an empty rebate section only means HomeReq has no approved local program record published for this project yet.

Open the official source before starting work. Use the source cards and verification dates as a trail back to the issuing department, utility, or program administrator.

Electrical permit for EV charger or EVSE installation

The City of Boston EVSE guide states that an electrical permit is required to install electric vehicle supply equipment for existing developments and that electrical permit applications are made through the Inspectional Services portal. Boston's electrical permit page also covers electrical installations, alterations, and repairs, so EV charger work should be handled through the electrical permit path and checked for service, wiring, utility, and site conditions before installation.
