Palm Beach permit search: the county's ePermits lookup
Official portal: Palm Beach County ePermits search.
Updated
Palm Beach County's public permit lookup is ePermits at pbc.gov. It finds permits and applications by permittee, project name, road name, application number, PZB number, or section, township and range. It only covers unincorporated Palm Beach County. Most of the county's cities, Boca Raton and West Palm Beach included, run their own building departments.
How to search Palm Beach County building permits
Palm Beach County's ePermits search covers unincorporated areas. Boca Raton and other cities permit separately.
Open the ePermits search and pick a search type: permittee, project name, road name, application number, PZB number, or section, township and range.
Searching by permittee? Type the first two letters of the contractor's or engineer's name, hit Search, then narrow the list.
Applying, inspections and fee estimates are on a different site, Building online submittal (ePZB), and that one needs a login.
For an address in Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, Jupiter or another city, use that city's portal.
The county Building Division covers unincorporated Palm Beach County, and that's a lot of ground, from the suburbs west of Lake Worth Beach and Boynton Beach out toward the Glades. Thirty-nine cities, towns and villages sit inside the county. The big ones permit on their own systems.

For contractors working Palm Beach County
ePermits searches by permittee. Market Intel tells you who the permittees are.
Roofing out-filed every other named trade in Palm Beach from Oct 2025 to Sep 2026: at least 23,628 permits. Typing the first two letters of a contractor's name only works when you know whose name to type. Finding out who's working west of Boynton Beach is the harder question.
