As our building department is currently experiencing a high volume of enquiries, we ask that you show patience as we work through the backlog.

Benalla Rural City Council has implemented a customer portal to process all building application types. We will no longer be accepting hard copies. 

You can use the online portal to:

  • Submit a new building permit application
  • Apply to extend or amend an existing permit
  • Check on the progress of your application
  • Make online payments
  • Request inspections
  • Apply for a Report and Consent
  • Apply for Section 29A Demolition
  • Apply for building search records
  • Register your swimming pool or spa
  • Request property information
  • Submit a general building enquiry
  • Lodge documents

As a customer, you can create your own login for access to the customer portal. This allows you to submit your applications and enquiries directly into the portal.

To set up your account, click on the button below to access the customer portal.

We understand navigating a new system can be challenging. If you need assistance with the portal, email building.info@benalla.vic.gov.au or call 03 5760 2665 to request a meeting with a member from the Building team to help you lodge your application.
