How much does a building permit cost in Idaho?

Most building permits in the United States cost between $150 and $2,000, with a national median around $1,300. Permit fees are usually set as a percentage of the declared project value — commonly 0.5% to 2% — or on a per-$1,000-of-valuation schedule, so a larger Idaho project pays a proportionally larger permit fee.

Across the 761 Idaho permits we currently track, the average declared project value is about $69,000. At a typical 0.5%–2% permit-fee schedule, that implies roughly $350–$1,400 in permit fees for an average Idaho project — though your city's fee schedule and project scope set the exact figure.
