4. Apply for consent to build a fence

Our tip

If your fence is close to a boundary, and you have the written approval from your neighbours, you can apply for a Deemed Permitted Boundary Activity.
 
This application replaces the need to apply for a resource consent.
 
You will still need to apply for a building consent, if required.

Online

Download and complete the Lodgement checklist: Residential.

You will need to login to complete the online application and pay by MasterCard, Visa, Online EFTPOS or Account2Account (bank transfer).
