Land ownership (land plot)

According to current Ukrainian legislation, land can be privately owned or temporarily/permanently used. For example, the permanent use of a land plot concerns communal or state-owned enterprises. The right to land ownership is acquired by individuals and legal entities based on the transfer of plots of land into ownership or use. In this article, our specialists Prykhodko and Partners, who specialize in land affairs, will tell you how to obtain land ownership.

To begin with, we note that the land sphere is a complex part of legal relations. This becomes especially clear in the process of land acquisition or privatization.

Unforeseen situations may occur in each of the cases. They can provoke conflicts. Land law lawyers will help you avoid such troubles.

Peculiarities of the procedure for acquiring ownership of a land plot

The only way to acquire the right to use/own land is through the decision of local self-government bodies or the executive power. This procedure is defined by the Land Code of Ukraine.

Ownership, as established by the Land Code, arises after the user or owner of the land has received a special document. It is he who confirms the right to undergo state registration.

As for the right to lease, it arises after the relevant lease agreement is concluded and the state registration procedure is completed. The use of the plot of land is prohibited until a document confirming ownership is received.

The right to own land can provoke various conflict situations. For example, several people can claim ownership of a plot of land at the same time. As a rule, such land disputes are considered in court. To defend your rights, it is best to use the help of professional lawyers who specialize in land issues.

The main reasons for acquiring ownership of a plot of land are:

1. Privatization of land used by citizens.
2. Acquisition of plots of land as a result of privatization of various institutions (communal, state, etc.).
3. Privatization of land plots, which are transferred to individuals free of charge.
