Electronic Submission Hub (ESH)

Buildings Department (BD) is spearheading the development of the Electronic Submission Hub (ESH) (https://esh.bd.gov.hk) as a digital platform for receiving and processing of building plans, documents and applications submitted under the Buildings Ordinance (Cap. 123), as an alternative means to the present paper-based mode of submission. ESH is a web-based platform operating 24 hours a day and 7 days a week all year round, excluding scheduled maintenance and unexpected downtime.
