Step by step
How to search permits in Hendry County.
Start with the office for the property's address. The official portal shows the permit's current status, inspections and documents.
Find the permitting authority
Check whether the address is inside Clewiston or LaBelle, which issue their own permits. Otherwise the permit belongs to Hendry County Building & Licensing.
Open the official permit search
Open Hendry County BS&A Online (Building Department), which runs on BS&A Online. The county's Building & Licensing page links here for Search for Records, Apply for Permit and Schedule Inspection (homeowner and contractor paths).
Search by address or permit number
Search with the street address or the permit number where the portal offers those fields, then open the record for its status, inspections and documents.
Ask the office about older records
If a permit is missing online, ask Hendry County Building & Licensing (863-675-5245) how to request it. Older permits are not always in online systems.
