Introduction and Its Compliance
A Fire NOC (No Objection Certificate) is a statutory requirement which is issued by the Fire Services Department of Uttar Pradesh in order to ensure that buildings and commercial establishments have complied with the prescribed fire safety conditions. Under the Uttar Pradesh Fire Prevention and Fire Safety Act, 2005, obtaining a Fire NOC is mandatory for certain categories of buildings, before they can be occupied or engaged in any kind of operations.
