Where to apply for an environmental permit? This is an issue that needs to be clearly understood when being subject to an environmental permit. Identifying the right licensing authority and understanding the appraisal process and costs are essential to ensure a smooth licensing process. The following article by Long Phan will answer this question and other questions related to environmental licensing.
According to the provisions of Article 41 of the Law on Environmental Protection 2020, depending on the type and scale of the project and facility, apply for an environmental license at different competent agencies. Specifically as follows:
Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment:
Ministry of National Defense, Ministry of Public Security:
Issuing environmental licenses for investment projects and facilities that are classified as state secrets on national defense and security.
Provincial People’s Committee:
District People’s Committee:
Issue environmental licenses for remaining projects and facilities that are not under the licensing authority of the above-mentioned agencies for subjects in case 1 of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
Pursuant to Point a, Clause 2, Article 43 of the Law on Environmental Protection 2020, you can choose one of the following three methods to submit an application for an environmental permit:
Fees for appraisal of environmental permit applications are specified in Circular 02/2022/TT-BTC. Specifically as follows:
STT | Number of hazardous waste treatment equipment | Fee (million VND) | |
Project | Facility | ||
1 | Go to 4 | 60 | 40 |
2 | From 5 to 10 | 65 | 50 |
3 | From 11 and up | 70 | 60 |
STT | Types of scrap | Fee (million VND) | |
Project | Facility | ||
1 | Scrap iron and steel | 75 | 50 |
2 | Paper scraps | 65 | 45 |
3 | Plastic scrap | 60 | 40 |
4 | Other scrap | 55 | 35 |
The above fee is calculated based on the environmental permit appraisal. The fee does not include travel costs for the actual inspection team at the facility and costs for sampling and analyzing waste samples according to regulations.
In case of projects or facilities requesting environmental licenses, including many contents of the license request (including: performing hazardous waste treatment services, importing scrap as raw materials for production and other contents): The fee level is determined as the highest fee level for the project or facility.
