\n- Prior declaration of work<\/strong> Swimming pool registration: compulsory for pools over 10 m\u00b2 and under 100 m\u00b2. Inform the local council that you're about to add a little something to your little corner of paradise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Planning permission<\/strong> : necessary for large projects, especially if your pool exceeds 100 m\u00b2. Yes, it's for ambitious people who think big!<\/li>\n\n\n\n

Tip<\/strong> Always keep a copy of your documents to hand. You never know when you'll need to prove that everything is in order!<\/p>\n\n\n\nPerfect, the administrative formalities are in the bag!
