How to use this page

Three checks before acting on a local result

Confirm the permit authority. This page is scoped to New York City, NY. 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 wiring and equipment

NYC DOB says an electrical permit is required for most electrical work, including handling electrical wires in a residential home or business, and that electrical filings are submitted in DOB NOW: Build. A residential EV charger normally involves new or modified wiring, circuit equipment, and possibly service equipment, so the work should be handled through the DOB electrical permit path by a licensed electrical contractor.
