More Information

The mission of the New Jersey Division of Fire Safety shall be to serve as the central focus for the State's fire service community and the general public in all matters relating to fire safety through the development and enforcement of the State Uniform Fire Code, public education programs and firefighter training programs.

Within the Division of Fire Safety, the Bureau of Fire Code Enforcement is responsible for enforcing the State's Uniform Fire Code. The Bureau of Fire Department Services is responsible for the training and education of New Jersey's fire service, fire incident reporting, firefighter serious injury and fatality investigations and fire safety's public education.

ATTENTION

Please be advised that the Bureau of Fire Code Enforcement (BFCE) will be upgrading our web-based Registration & Inspection Management System (RIMS) to a new Fire, Inspection, Registration & Enforcement (FIRE) Solutions System.

The current RIMS system will be turned off on Friday, April 14. 2023 at 3:00pm. There will be a two week down time between the two systems to migrate the data from RIMS into Fire Solutions. The Fire Solutions System will go live on Monday, May 1, 2023.

The NJDCA online system can be accessed via the myNewJersey Portal at http://www.nj.gov, or accessed directly from this page by selecting "Login to RIMS Online" below. You will be required to have a myNewJersey Portal account in order to access RIMS' online services. If you do not have a myNewJersey Portal account, you will be able to create one during the registration process. You will also be able to use this same myNewJersey account to access other services provided by other New Jersey Departments.
