Opinion of Bratislava, the capital of the Slovak Republic, on the investment plan

What is the Investment project announcement and when to apply for it?

Bratislava, the capital of the Slovak Republic, allows builders to verify the suitability of the planned land use, namely during the preparation of a specific investment plan, i.e., even before the issuing of a binding opinion and the proceedings taking place at the relevant building authority.

The constructor shall submit the investment plan to the city for consideration along with a request for the city’s opinion on the investment plan. If the submitted architectural study provides sufficient information for a comprehensive assessment of the investment plan, the city shall express its permissibility and suitability on the city’s territory in terms of the established function and intensity of the use of the area defined in the spatial planning documentation.

In the issued opinion, the city shall also indicate the requirements of the assessing expert departments at Bratislava City Hall for the processing of the project documentation required for the zoning decision.

Bratislava issues its opinion on the investment plan through the Investment Guidance Department of Bratislava City Hall. The opinion does not serve as material for proceedings that are then held at the relevant building office. It is advisable to apply for this opinion especially, but not exclusively, in the case of larger investment projects and in the case of complex circumstances in the area in question in terms of the requirements arising from valid spatial planning documentation.

The opinion of the city on the investment plan is issued in paper form and is signed by the mayor of Bratislava as the executive and statutory entity.
