Firefighters’ Preliminary Report: Information for a Smooth Process

What is the Firefighters’ Preliminary Report?

The fire prevention preliminary report is a technical document that certifies that an establishment complies with the fire safety requirements established by current regulations.

It is a fundamental requirement for:

• Obtaining business licenses.
• Requesting permits for work in high-risk establishments.
• Modifying or expanding industrial or commercial facilities.
• Ensuring regulatory compliance in public and private buildings.

This report is issued by fire departments or engineers specialized in fire safety. At Tecno Consultor, we conduct a thorough assessment and handle the entire process so you don’t have to worry about bureaucracy.

Who Needs a Firefighters’ Preliminary Report?

This report is mandatory for various types of activities, mainly those that may pose a fire risk. Some examples include:

• Companies and industries: Factories, warehouses, production plants.
• Businesses and retail: Shopping malls, supermarkets, hotels, restaurants.
• Public and private buildings: Hospitals, schools, offices, collective housing.
• Entertainment and event venues: Theaters, cinemas, nightclubs, concert halls.

Each autonomous community or municipality may have specific requirements, so it is crucial to have specialized advice to avoid delays or regulatory non-compliance.

Current Regulations and Key Requirements

Fire safety regulations vary depending on the location and type of establishment. Some of the main applicable regulations in Spain include:

• Technical Building Code (CTE-DB-SI) – Regulates fire safety in buildings.
• Fire Safety Regulations for Industrial Establishments (RSCIEI) – Applies to industries and warehouses.
• Regional and municipal regulations – Each community may require additional requirements.

Step-by-Step Application Process

1. Initial Assessment: An analysis of the establishment and its fire risk level is carried out. At Tecno Consultor, we conduct a preliminary diagnosis to identify any potential non-compliance and correct it before submitting the application.
2. Documentation Preparation: We gather all the necessary technical and administrative documentation. This step is crucial to avoid delays.
3. Application Submission: The application is submitted to the relevant authority (municipality, regional government, or fire department).
4. Technical Inspection: Firefighters or specialized technicians conduct an inspection to verify that fire safety measures comply with regulations.
5. Report Issuance: If everything is in order, a favorable report is issued. In case of deficiencies, the necessary corrections will be indicated before re-submitting the application.
