landlord consent letter for application of change of use with ura

When applying for a change of use with the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) in Singapore, obtaining a landlord's consent is a crucial step. Here are the key points to consider:

Landowner's Consent

If the property is being leased, you must obtain a Letter of Consent from the landowner. This applies whether the property is leased from the Housing Development Board (HDB), the Singapore Land Authority, or other government bodies like the Jurong Town Corporation.

Prior Consent

The tenant or the appointed agent making the application must secure prior written consent from the property owner. This ensures that the landowner is aware and agrees to the proposed change in the use of the property.

Submission

The Letter of Consent from the landowner should be included as part of the supporting documents when submitting the change of use application via the GoBusiness Licensing portal or through other specified channels.

By obtaining and submitting this consent, you can ensure that your application for change of use is complete and compliant with URA's requirements.
