What is this procedure?

Through prior communication with Technical Project and Technical Certificate, the interested party informs the competent public administration of the start or substantial modification of an economic activity, which requires the presentation of a technical project and a technical certificate according to the annex to Law 18/2020, of December 28, on the facilitation of economic activity.

The communication of data for the start of the activity in an establishment immediately enables the exercise of the activity under the responsibility of the owner and the competent technician who signs the technical documentation. The communication of the data empowers the Administration to carry out any verification action.

Failure to pay the fees relating to the economic activity before it begins will render the communication ineffective.

The communication must be formalized once the necessary works and installations have been completed, which must be covered by the corresponding urban planning license, or, where applicable, by prior communication of works not subject to a license and also for the rest of the necessary sectoral licenses.

Who can apply for it?

The legal person who wants to carry out one or more activities in the same center or establishment or its legal representative. In this case, the representation with which it acts must be declared.

(In the event that the technical certificate is not endorsed, it will be necessary to provide proof that the technician has a valid professional civil liability policy.)

The self-assessment of taxes must be requested from the Tax Management Department, prior to the presentation of the documentation, and payment must be made once the payment letter has been received. The receipt accrediting the settlement of the taxes will be included with the rest of the documentation that must be attached to formalize the procedure. The request will be made through the procedure "TXIA - Interventions in Activities: Payment Letter, which can be accessed via the link on the right side of the page"

Observations

1. PREREQUISITES

  • Activities that, according to their needs, require the entry of vehicles inside the establishment must process the corresponding ford license application.
  • If it is an activity that you want to locate in existing buildings built without a specific use, you must provide an urban compatibility report.
  • If the activity requires the installation of any INFORMATION SIGN, the corresponding municipal permit must be requested from the Department of Works and the sign must follow the parameters set in the Static Advertising Ordinance approved on February 6, 2002.
  • In accordance with article 32.6 of Law 18/2020, the communication of the start of activity can only be submitted once the previous interventions established by the sectoral regulations have been successfully completed. This implies that, if renovation works are required to implement the activity, the corresponding urban development title (license or communication of works) must have been previously obtained and executed. The communication of activity must be formalized once the premises are fully suitable and have all the required prior permits.

Prohibition of flag signs: except for hotels, parking lots, pharmacies or credit institution ATMs. If the establishment already has a flag sign, it must be removed.
