Reclassification Class 1a to 1b

The conversion of a dwelling to a building to be used for short-term holiday accommodation requires a Building Approval for the reclassification of the building. 

This is necessary whether building work is required or not.

The operation of short term accommodation requires the following approvals:

• Planning Approval for Short term accommodation;
• Building Approval for a Change of Classification as detailed in the fact sheet below
• Local Law permit (PDF 295KB) to Operate Rental Accommodation; and
• if necessary, approval for Plumbing & Drainage works.
