How to look up a building permit in Edmonton
Edmonton publishes its permit records itself, on a Socrata open-data endpoint at data.edmonton.ca, in the dataset "Building Permits (24uj-dj8v)". That feed is the source this page reads, so a record here can be checked against the city's own copy. Search by civic address first, then confirm the permit number and the issue date. Records the city has not yet published will not appear in either place.
Van Permit Audit holds 246,762 Edmonton permit records, current to 2026-09-28. See the full Edmonton lookup guide for the step by step.
