Registration of Changes to Data on a Building and Its Parts

Registration of changes data on a building and its parts is a surveying service used to update the information recorded in the real estate cadastre when it no longer reflects the actual situation on the ground.

The real estate cadastre contains data on the location, floor plan, height, actual use and area of a building, as well as data on its individual parts. Whenever any of these characteristics change, for example due to an extension, addition of a storey, change of use or removal of a building, the change must be recorded in the real estate cadastre.

When is it necessary to register changes data on a building and its parts?

Registration of changes is required when:

• the area, floor plan or height of a building has changed, for example due to an extension, addition of a storey or demolition of part of a building
• the actual use of a building or part of a building has changed
• the number or extent of individual building parts has changed
• the data recorded in the real estate cadastre does not reflect the actual situation on the ground
• you want to establish condominium ownership or arrange registration in the land register

Why register changes data on a building and its parts?

Changes to building data should be registered to ensure that you:

• have accurate and up-to-date data in the real estate cadastre that reflects the actual situation
• can carry out legal transactions involving the property without complications, such as a sale, mortgage or establishment of condominium ownership
• have accurate property data for taxation purposes
• can obtain the necessary permits and certificates
