How to look up a building permit in Lethbridge
Lethbridge publishes its permit records itself, on a CSV download open-data endpoint at gis.lethbridge.ca, in the dataset "BuildingPermits.csv". 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 35,343 Lethbridge permit records, current to 2026-08-28. See the full Lethbridge lookup guide for the step by step.
