Do I need a permit for a mezzanine floor?
Not always. The decisive factor is whether the floor genuinely adds usable floor area to your building. If it does, the floor is in principle subject to a permit requirement.
There is one important exception: if the floor forms part of a system or machine within the building (a maintenance platform belonging to a machine, for example), no permit is required. The floor is then part of the installation supplied and does not count as added usable floor area.
Whether a permit is required in your situation therefore depends on how the floor is used. If in doubt, seek advice from your local authority; they make the final assessment of the permit requirement.
