Registration of ownership of a residential building

Starting from January 1, 2016, no certificate of ownership of a house or apartment is issued in Ukraine when registering real estate. However, it is mandatory that ownership rights are registered in the State Register of Property Rights, indicating the basis for their occurrence. An extract from this Register is used in real estate transactions.

The package of title documents remains the same as before. At the same time, the list of documents and the procedure for registering ownership of a completed, unfinished residential building and an unauthorized building will be different.

How to register ownership of an unfinished building?

If the owner decides to sell an unfinished building, he or she needs to register the ownership of the building. The following documents are required for this purpose:

A document authorizing construction work
A technical passport issued by the BTI. To obtain it, you need to have an expert visit the site, take measurements, and conduct a technical inspection
Documents for the land plot, even if the title to it has not yet been formalized

Original documents are submitted to the registrar, who makes copies of them.

Registering ownership of a house: documents to be submitted to the Register of Completed Objects

To register the ownership of a residential building whose construction has already been completed, a notary or state registrar must be provided with the following documents

• Technical passport
• Declaration of readiness for operation. Issued by the architectural and construction control authorities upon completion of construction work. It is provided in two copies, one of which is returned to the customer after registration
• Document on assignment of a postal address. Issued by local authorities

What documents are required to register ownership of a house built without a building permit?

In order to register a real estate object built or reconstructed without a construction permit, a technical inspection of such an object and commissioning with the issuance of a relevant document are required.

In addition to the title documents for the house, an application, passport and identification code, and a receipt for payment of the administrative fee must be submitted to the notary or registrar.

After registration of a residential building, its owner receives an extract from the State Register of Property Rights.
