Quebec City filed 1,252 building permits in the 30 days to 2026-09-25, up 6.5% on the 1,176 filed in the preceding 30 days. The busiest category was Rénovation/Agrandissement with 449 permits, followed by Aménagement extérieur with 422. Quebec City publishes no usable project value on its permit feed, so this page shows no median value rather than a placeholder. Across the trailing 12 months Quebec City filed 11,378 permits, and June 2026 was the busiest month at 1,582. The Quebec City feed does not name a contractor on its permit records, so no contractor ranking is published here.

How to look up a building permit in Quebec City
Quebec City publishes its permit records itself, on a CSV (Donnees Quebec) open-data endpoint at donneesquebec.ca, in the dataset "vdq-permis.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 66,837 Quebec City permit records, current to 2026-09-25. See the full Quebec City lookup guide for the step by step.
