Registration of rights to real estate

An indispensable condition for the emergence of rights to real estate is their registration in accordance with the procedure established by law. Registration means the official recognition by the state of the acquisition, modification, or termination of rights by entering data on the object into the State Real Estate Register. Without registration of rights, the owner cannot enter into any transactions with the property.

Registration of rights to real estate

All of these transactions require a notary or registrar to make changes to the State Register.

Registration of real estate rights: documents

Depending on what is the subject of the transaction and the status of the property (residential house, apartment, land plot, building constructed before 1993, garage, etc.), an individually defined set of documents is required. In most cases, the following basic documents are required:

• Passport - copy
• Identification code - copy
• Technical passport for the real estate object
• Power of attorney to represent the owner's interests
• Title documents for the registered object

After the rights are registered, the owner receives the registrar's decision and an extract from the State Register. Upon request, the extract may be provided in paper form with the signature of the person who performed the registration and the seal. However, electronic and printed forms of the extract do not differ in legal force.
