[RPG] Can a permanent teleportation circle be dispelled

dnd-5espellsteleportation

Teleportation circle (PHB, pg. 282) can be made permanent, as the spell description says:

You can create a permanent teleportation circle by casting this spell in the same location every day for one year.

Dispel magic (PHB, pg. 234) can only target an object, creature, or magical effect.

A permanent teleportation circle doesn't seem to be an object or magical effect; it is an inscription, a writing. Can it actually be dispelled?

Best Answer

The verbiage "Until Dispelled" and "Permanent" are functionally the same with regards to spell duration.

As Jeremy Crawford indicates here.

If the effect of a spell becomes permanent, it can be dispelled, unless its description says otherwise.

Later this makes it into the official Sage Advice Compendium

Can permanent magical effects be dispelled? Or are they no longer considered magical effects once permanent?

If the effect of a spell becomes permanent, it can be dispelled, unless its description says otherwise (such as in the wall of stone spell).

So unless a spell description says otherwise it is still an effect of the spell and dispel magic ends spells.

The logic behind RAW as I see it is that dispel magic ends spells. A spell effect that becomes permanent is still an effect created by a spell, thus can be ended with dispel magic unless more specific verbiage (e.g. the text of a specific spell) states otherwise.
