Planning Application Forms

Table of Planning Application Forms

A National Standard Planning Application Form, known as '1APP' has been created by the Government to streamline the planning system across England and Wales to make it easier for applicants.

The use of the standard forms will be mandatory from 6 April 2008. After that date we will not be able to accept applications submitted on existing/old style forms.

To ensure that you provide the information necessary for your application to be processed efficiently, different forms are provided for different types of application. If you need to apply for two consent types, e.g. planning permission and listed building consent, combined forms are available which include the questions for both application types. If you use one of these combined forms, even though you only have to complete one form, it will be treated as two applications and you will be advised of two application numbers, one for each type of consent.

From the 6 April 2008, new Regulations require all Planning related applications to be accompanied by a number of plans and documents in order to be accepted as valid. The link below provides full details of the Planning Application Requirements for the London Borough of Bexley and will help ensure that you provide the information we need. By providing this information we will be able to process your application as quickly as possible. Failure to provide this information when you submit your application will make your application invalid and will delay the processing of your application until the information is supplied.

You can create and submit most types of planning application online via the Planning Portal, including the ability to upload drawings, purchase site maps and pay application fees. The Planning Portal is a national website and offers a number of benefits:

  • standard application forms for use with all planning authorities.

Please note that you will have to register with the Planning Portal when making your first online application.

When making an online application please note the following to assist us in dealing with your application:

  • Ensure you have read the appropriate help texts relating to completion of the Planning Application forms and addressed any issues covered.

  • Drawings must include a scale bar. If your plans are larger than A3 size you should identify what size the drawings should be printed (A0, A1 etc.).

  • Providing a summary of all attachments included with your application is very helpful.

  • Attachments are restricted to the following file types: .pdf, .tif, .jpg, .gif, .doc, .xls, .bmp, .png, .plt, .txt. The maximum combined size of all files that can be uploaded is 25Mb. No individual file should be larger than 5Mb.

  • We are unable to accept CAD drawings.

  • If you submit drawings or fees by post, please ensure these are correctly addressed, 'Planning Portal Application', London Borough of Bexley, Wyncham House, 207 Longlands Road, Sidcup Kent DA15 7JH and quote the Planning Portal Application number.
