Renewing a Miami-Dade NOA extends the product’s expiration date, typically for up to five years. This process is used when the Florida Building Code has been updated but the evaluation remains valid, or when the Quality Assurance (QA) date has expired.

A renewal does not modify drawings or technical content—it only extends the existing approval’s validity. Updated QA documentation and contact information may be required.

Miami-Dade’s renewal fee is generally lower than a revision, and the process is simpler if no design changes are involved.

For exact requirements and timing, contact your Miami-Dade Product Approval representative directly.

A Miami-Dade NOA revision is required whenever changes are made to the approved product documentation, such as:

• Updates to the Florida Building Code

• Alternate substrates or materials

• Modifications to installation details

Example: Updating an approval to comply with the next Florida Building Code and adding an alternate substrate requires submission as a revision.

Important: A revision does not extend the NOA’s expiration date. If you only submit a revision, the approval’s expiration remains unchanged, and a separate fee is required to renew the NOA.
