		DOB COVID-19 
		Response Update: License and Permit Expiration Dates 
			
				|   | 
				Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Department of 
				Buildings has been making sure that permitted work is able to 
				continue while keeping you updated on any guideline changes 
				related to the construction industry. Here are some important 
				changes to practices that were in effect as part of New York 
				City's COVID-19 response: 
				Now that regular construction work has resumed, licenses/registrations and permits will no longer be 
				automatically extended. All licenses/registrations and permits 
				issued by the Department with an original expiration date on or 
				after August 7, 2020 will expire on that original 
				expiration date per Mayoral Emergency Executive Order No. 134. 
				Licenses/registrations and permits that were subject to Mayoral Emergency Executive 
				Order No. 107, subsequent orders, and Local Law 57 of 2020, 
				which were automatically extended through August 6, 2020, 
				will expire according to the schedule below. For more 
				information, please review our Service Notice. |
