How to Get Sharjah Civil Defence Approval (مدني الشارقة موافقة): Step-by-Step Guide

At BAHR AL IBDAA Décor Cont., we handle the complete fit-out process, including full Sharjah Civil Defence approvals, saving you time, delays, and compliance risks.
What is Sharjah Civil Defence Approval?
Sharjah Civil Defence is the government authority responsible for ensuring fire and life safety compliance in all new and existing buildings. You must secure this approval before beginning fit-out works or opening your space to the public.
Whether it’s a restaurant fit-out in Sharjah or a salon interior, SCD approval is required to verify your layout, materials, ventilation, and fire systems.
Required Documents for Sharjah Civil Defence
Copy of trade license
Approved layout and shop drawing
MEP drawings (mechanical, electrical, plumbing)
Fire fighting and fire alarm plans
Affection plan
List of fire-rated materials
Copy of tenancy contract
Fit-out contractor and consultant license
We ensure your documents meet all specifications, reducing rejection chances and processing delays.
