Action 
Role Involved
Initiate Fire NOC application: The first step in the workflow is to start initiate entering details in the fire Fire NOC application form, online.  The online application form is filled in by the ULB employee manning the NOC counter, on behalf of the citizen.  
  • NOC Counter Employee
Submit application: After entering all required details, the counter employee saves and submits the application in the system.  
  • NOC Counter Employee
Collect Payment: On submitting the form, the applicant has to pay the application fees. Counter employees collect the fire NOC application fees in cash, by cheque, or by debit/credit card payment and record the same in the system. 
  • NOC Counter Employee

Verify and Forward or Reject:  The application form is deemed submitted only after the fees are collected. On submit, the system then moves the application form and assigns the task to a Licensing Clerk (a ULB employee) who verifies the form information and supporting documents.

If the information and supporting documents are correct, the clerk forwards the application to the Licensing Inspector for a field inspection.

If the information is incorrect or if there is any discrepancy in supporting documents, the clerk rejects the NOC application. 

  • Licensing Clerk

Approve: After Licensing Inspectors receive the application, they visit the property location and physically verify and corroborate the information provided in the application form. They also inspect the property to verify that it complies with all recommended safety precautions, rules, and regulations. This is an offline process. 

If the property passes the inspection, the licensing inspector forwards the application to the Licensing Officer for approval. 

The Licensing Officer is the final authority to grant the fire NOC. The officer checks the inspection report and all documents submitted in the previous workflow stages and either approves or rejects the request.

Citizens receive a copy of the fire NOC after the officer approves the request.
