What is the land registry?

According to the law, the property register consists of the title deed recorded in a readable format on a designated computer data carrier, a list of entries that have been removed from the title deed, the property register map and the document repository.

The property register contains data on properties, rights and facts related to properties that can be entered in the property register, as well as data necessary for identifying persons registered as entitled parties.

The land registry is an electronic database containing information on the property and its owner, encumbrances on the property, entries relating to the property that have already been deleted, and maps relating to the properties. In addition, the land registry also includes paper-based documents relating to the property (e.g. the purchase agreement on the basis of which the land registry office registered the owner's title).
