Goa, Nov. 7 -- The Goa government has increased the validity of Fire and Emergency Services NOCs from one year to five years for all buildings. Owners must file annual self-declarations confirming functional fire systems. Authorities reserve the right to inspect and revoke NOCs if safety norms are not met. This move aims to simplify compliance while ensuring public safety across high- and low-risk structures.
