Step by step
How to search permits in Seminole 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 Sanford, Oviedo, Lake Mary or Casselberry, which issue their own permits. Otherwise the permit belongs to Seminole County Development Services, Building Division.
Open the official permit search
Open Seminole County OneStop, which runs on Accela Citizen Access. Create an account to apply and submit plans, track and manage permits, pay fees and schedule Building Division inspections.
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 Seminole County Development Services, Building Division (407-665-7050) how to request it. Older permits are not always in online systems.
