REQUEST FOR ADDRESS
ASSIGNMENT/VERIFICATION
Proper addressing is a key element in managing an effective address database for 911 emergency systems, the United States Postal
Service, law enforcement agencies, firefighters, utility companies, property assessors, title companies, building permits, and
inspections. Because of this, it is essential that the accurate assignment and verification of an address be conducted prior to permitting.
An address consists of the street number and name, building number, and/or suite/unit/apartment number. The City of San Antonio
reserves the right to change an existing address to ensure that first responders, firefighters, police, and emergency medical units are
provided with accurate address information. Using inaccurate addresses may cause delays in emergency services response
times, mail delivery problems, and slow the development process when applying for building permits and utility services.
It is highly recommended that a new address or verification of an existing address be requested prior to submitting a
permit application to ensure the expedited address review of the permit. Nonetheless, new addresses may be requested prior to and
during the Plat review process, or prior to the submittal of a permit application. Likewise, existing addresses may be verified prior
to or during the permitting review process. 
To obtain an address review, the following documentation and fees must be submitted to Land Entitlements, Addressing Team for
review and approval; please select the following request(s) as applicable:
Assign a new address through platting:
1. Completed “Request for Address Assignment/Verification form.
2. Approved or Recorded Plat. In the event that platting is not required, a copy of the Certificate of Determination(COD) will
be required.
3. A site plan is required for all commercial and multi-family projects.
4. Digital copy of the plat in DWG and PDF format.
Please note that all digital copies must be geo-referenced and all assigned addresses for preliminary plat are not final and are
subject to change until the plat is recorded. Also, if the Plat, Site Plan, or Floor Plan is amended in any way prior to
recordation or the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, you must submit revised plans for address review as the address
may be affected and required to change. Advertisement of the address is not recommended until the plat is recorded and/or
when changes are reviewed and approved by Addressing.
Verification of an existing address:
1. Completed “Request for Address Assignment/Verification form.
2. If plat is not available provide a copy of the deed, title, or Bexar County Appraisal District property details. In the
event that platting is not required, a copy of the Certificate of Determination (COD) will be required.

1. Completed “Request for Address Assignment/Verification form.
2. Suite Numbers - Floor Plan (PDF format) to include linear measurements of the entire floor, all existing suite
