Do you have a construction, renovation, tree-cutting or commercial occupancy project in Lachine? For all your projects requiring a permit, agents from the borough’s Division permis et inspections are on hand to guide you.

Submit your documents without going anywhere


Since January 3, 2025, Lachine’s permit issuance process has been entirely online. Applications, plans and supporting documents must now be submitted by email to the inspector handling your file or to permislachine@montreal.ca. Digital processing is much faster than the old practice of dropping off paper plans at the counter.

An early start is really smart!


Avoid inconvenience and stress: Submit your permit application as soon as possible! If you’re planning to carry out renovations next summer, get ready early in the winter to take advantage of shorter permit issuance times: from mid-March on, the number of applications considerably increases and so do permit issuance times. 

Any questions?
