Planning permission detached vs attached garage

Is it generally easier to get planning permission for a detached garage or an attached garage? Or is mostly depending on different factors entirely?

"Depends , if your cutting through existing house then I would say detached if simply a garage with external access shouldn’t make much of a difference"

"Hi
There is no difference between detached or attached garage for planning you may not need planning as you could do it under building regs
Hope this helps
