Advertising system

Advertising installations are understood to be forms of advertising where the advertising medium is visible from the public traffic area. According to the Hessian Building Code (HBO), advertising facilities are considered structural installations. As a rule, the installation of advertising facilities is subject to planning permission. If the advertising structures are erected in the vicinity of heavily frequented roads, the responsible road construction authorities are usually involved due to the safety and ease of traffic.

No building permit is required for advertising structures with a visible area of up to 1 m² or within the scope of municipal bylaws, if the municipalities have stipulated advertising structures and the advertising structures comply with these stipulations.
