About this procedure
The fire department compliance certificate, also called the fire prevention and protection certificate (Certificado de Prevención y Protección contra Incendios), is the document in which the Cuerpo de Bomberos certifies that your premises meet fire safety standards. And here's what makes it essential: city hall requires it before it grants your business license. In other words, without the fire department certificate you don't get the license, and without the license you can't operate legally. It's one of those pieces without which, quite literally, you don't open.
Beyond the paperwork, this protects what matters most: the lives of your employees and your customers. That's why the inspection is real: they check fire extinguishers, emergency exits, signage and electrical installations, and if your premises are larger than three hundred square meters, they also require a maintenance contract for the firefighting equipment. Showing up to that inspection unprepared is a recipe for a pile of findings and a procedure that drags on just when you want to open right away.
We get it for you with everything in order: we check what your municipality's Cuerpo de Bomberos requires, prepare the paperwork and your premises for the inspection, and handle the compliance certificate from start to finish. The price starts at $90 and is adjusted to your case. A lawyer reviews your situation and confirms everything before we start, no strings attached.
