INTRODUCTION
The Minister of the Interior, in the context of achieving the goal of the Ministry of the Interior
to further simplify the development permitting process, and securing it
rapid processing of urban planning applications, and after introducing the new one
procedure of the Certification of the Town Planning Authority, with the possibility of automatic version
Certification, in the IPPODAMOS system, with the issuance of a Special Development Decree (K.D.P.
322/2024) and the amendment of the Order 2/2020, which were implemented by 2/10/2024,
decided how to extend the scope of the Urban Planning Certification procedure
Beginning in larger scale deployments, with the publication of a new Special Decree
of Development and at the same time has issued the Order 1/2025, which is about the process
granting a planning permit for residential development on plots of land and plots under construction,
with the Urban Planning Certainty process, for the categories of residential developments that do not
fall within the scope of the new, Special Development Decree.
1.2
Along with the above, the Minister of the Interior, issues this Order with no.

Belts and Axles, Centers or Areas of Local Plans and Area Plans, and to
Local Plan areas where mixed Housing is permitted / Office Use (Zones CG).
1.3
Applications on lots falling within designated Specialist Areas are excluded
Character (EX) and within the boundaries of Sovereign British Bases, as well as the cases
of buildings that have been declared as preserved based on the article 38 of Urban Planning and
Zoning Law.
1.4
For applications falling within the scope of paragraph 1.2 above, with the application for
the granting of a planning permit must be submitted to the IPPODAMOS system, the
Urban planning certificate form, attached to this Order, duly
completed.

2.2
To ensure the assumption of responsibility of the submitted data by its researcher
project, will be submitted compulsorily, as a necessary element for handling the application,
according to the Regulation 3(2)(d), of Town Planning and Spatial Planning (Applications and Hierarchies

in the planning permit. In the event that material inaccuracies/errors are found
(B.C. building factor, coverage rate, height of main and auxiliary building,
distances from borders, embankments, etc.), the application will be rejected and will
the owner is informed accordingly (in case he has been declared as a representative of o
scholar).
In case of repetition of the application submission phenomenon with inaccurate or incorrect
data relating to material matters (as mentioned above), by the same scholar,
the Urban Planning Authority will inform the ETEK accordingly, so as to promote the download of
of prescribed measures based on the relevant ETEK Legislation and in accordance with

Urban Planning Authority.
In the event that after the granting of the planning permission, found to have
misrepresented information regarding the aforementioned material matters, or
The Town Planning Authority will inform ETEK, for the enforcement of the provisions based
the ETEK Legislation and according to the submitted professional certificate
responsibility of the researcher, penalties and the planning permission will cease to be valid. In cases
these, the Town Planning Authority will also inform the owner accordingly. Relatively typical
condition for the possibility of termination of the validity of the license in the event of a finding
declaration of incorrect data will be placed on the granted planning permit.
