A No Objection Certificate popularly referred to as Fire NOC is a document that shows that the fire prevention and safety requirements are in sync with the rules of the Fire Department of that particular municipal corporation, is a mandatory document to complete the legal compliance of a facility.

While leasing out residential properties, a fire NOC is never paid heed to by the owner or the tenant. However when leasing out commercial properties to IT companies, multinational companies or banks, the landlord will have to adhere to certain strict compliances and the NOC becomes a must-have document.  Carrying out Fire Risk Assessments that point out potential fire hazards and keeping a record of this along with inspections and maintaining records of fire detection and alarm systems, smoke or heat detectors, fire extinguishers and emergency response teams are also on the list of document compliance.
