Building and living in Botkyrka

Overview

Botkyrka includes built-up districts as well as places such as Tullinge, Tumba and Vårsta–Grödinge. Begin with the location of the plot rather than a general picture of the municipality. The district pages help you get oriented; the applicable plan, water connection and site map show what you need to check for the individual property.Districts and current projects

What can be built on the plot?

Planning & detailed development plans

Look up the property in Botkyrka's map of applicable detailed plans before choosing a house design. The plan documents show the rules for the land and buildings. The municipality also lists plans being prepared; a proposal does not give you permission to build. Read the applicable documents and ask the municipality if a provision is unclear.Applicable detailed plans

Planning permission for a new home

Building permits

A new home needs a building permit review. Botkyrka's permit pages lead you to the application and explain drawings and the following steps. First check the plan for your plot and ask which documents your application needs. Costs depend on the case, so confirm current charges and required documents before ordering work or setting a start date.Building permits and permissions

Information and documents

Water and wastewater

Water & wastewater

Botkyrka has a specific process for connecting a property to public water and wastewater services. For a new connection, the new-build map shows the connection point where private pipes meet the public network. You also submit a service notification and explain how rainwater will be managed. Ask the municipality what applies to the plot; a general information page is not an offer of connection.Connect to public water and wastewater

Maps and site plans

Maps & documents

Botkyrka distinguishes a plot map from a new-build map. For a new home, the new-build map forms the basis of the site plan, the drawing that places the house on the plot. The municipality also offers surveying and position checks. Ask the permit office which map your application needs before ordering one; a simpler extract may not be enough.Maps and surveying

Everyday life and nature

Outdoor options differ across Botkyrka's districts. The municipality describes Mälarskogen nature reserve by the Lake Mälaren shore in the north, among other reserves. Check nature access, daily services and travel routes from the address you are considering.
