What is a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA)?
Answered by AskBaily Editorial · Updated
Short answer
A Miami-Dade NOA is a per-product approval confirming that a specific window, door, roofing assembly, or garage door has passed HVHZ testing under Miami-Dade's Product Control program. NOAs expire, typically every 5 years. Any permit in Miami-Dade or Broward must reference a current NOA for each exterior product. Products without a current NOA cannot be installed; permit inspection rejects them at rough-in.
