Commercial to Residential Exemptions

Planning and Development Act (Exempted Development) Regulations 2025 (S.I. 648 of 2025)

The Planning and Development Act (Exempted Development) Regulations 2025 (S.I. 648 of 2025) extends to 31 December 2028 the exemption given by SI 30 of 2018 and satisfies the commitment given by action 20.3 of Housing for All.

In order to avail of the exemptions being provided for, the structure, or part of the structure, which is the subject of the change of use must have been vacant for at least 2 years immediately prior to the commencement of the relevant works, with such works being required to be completed by 31 December 2028.

In addition to the classes of use that qualified under the 2018 and 2022 change of use exempted development provisions – i.e. Classes 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 – as outlined in Part 4 of Schedule 2 of the Planning and Development Regulations 2001, as amended, remains unchanged.

Development must not contravene a condition attached to a permission issued under the Act, including any condition specifying the permitted use of the building concerned.

Notification Requirement - a planning authority must be notified in writing of the details of the development at least 2 weeks prior to the commencement of the proposed change of use. A planning authority remains required to:

• Maintain a record of any notifications received
• Make the record publicly available online and at their office, and
• Submit annual returns to the Minister detailing the notifications received
