Notes on Certificates

  • when notice is given on the application for building warrant of the intention to provide a certificate from an approved certifier of construction to accompany the completion certificate submission, the applicant is entitled to a discount on the fee
  • if the intention to provide a certificate from an approved certifier of construction is not declared on this form, this does not preclude a certificate subsequently being provided with the completion certificate submission
  • any person intending to use an approved certifier of construction should check the current status of known firms by using the Certification Register available on the Scottish Government website

If you don’t provide a certificate from an approved certifier with your completion certificate, you’ll need to pay the amount of fee discounted, which may delay the acceptance of your completion certificate.
