Planning applications: the situation in the cantons
Cantons currently regulate the submission of planning applications differently. Some have already completed the switch to a digital solution, some are in a transitional phase and others are still relying on a cumbersome paper-based process. However, one thing is clear: sooner or later, all cantons will move towards processing planning applications digitally. That’s why it’s worth getting to grips with this issue now.
What does the digitalisation of the building permit process mean?
If the submission of building permits is digitised, the signature process also has to be handled electronically. The confirmation of submission must be signed with a qualified electronic signature (QES), which is equivalent to a handwritten signature (Art. 14 (2)bis of the Swiss Code of Obligations). This means that construction clients or their representatives – architects or lawyers, for example – need a certified electronic signature solution, such as the solution provided by SwissSign.
