Apply for a permit

In an era where regulations are becoming increasingly complex and government policy is constantly changing, obtaining and maintaining a permit is no longer a given. Whether it concerns an operating permit, environmental permit, presence permit, or a gambling permit – legal guidance is essential to limit risks and seize opportunities.

An event permit is generally required when:

  • The event is publicly accessible;
  • There is amplified sound, traffic measures, or security;
  • Alcohol is served or temporary structures are erected (such as stages or tents).
Permits

Is your permit refused, revoked, or restricted? We conduct objection and appeal procedures with administrative bodies and courts.

If you cannot wait and disagree with a decision, you can apply for an interim measure. This is a temporary measure until a final decision is made by the administrative body. We are also ready to assist with urgent procedures (interim measures).

We guide you with:

  • Order subject to penalty or Order subject to administrative enforcement
  • Administrative fines
  • Bibob investigations and integrity matters;
  • Consultation with supervisors such as the Gaming Authority or municipalities.
