What should I do if the construction unit cannot start construction as scheduled after receiving the construction permit?

1. The construction unit should start construction within three months after receiving the construction permit. If the construction cannot start as scheduled due to various reasons, it should apply to the license-issuing authority for an extension;
The extension period is limited to two times. If the construction does not start for more than three months each time and no extension is applied for or the extension time limit is exceeded, the construction permit will be automatically revoked.
2. If construction is suspended due to various reasons during the construction period, the construction unit shall report to the certification authority within one month from the date of suspension of construction, and perform maintenance and management of the project in accordance with regulations.

During the resumption of construction, the construction project shall be reported to the permit-issuing authority. Before the construction of a project suspended for one year is resumed, the construction unit shall report to the permit-issuing authority for verification of the construction permit.
3. If construction cannot be started on time or construction is suspended for any reason, construction projects that have been approved for start-of-construction reporting in accordance with relevant regulations of the State Council must report to the approval authority in a timely manner.

If the construction fails to start as scheduled for more than six months due to various reasons, the approval procedures for the construction start report should be re-approved.
