Assigning a cadastral number
The concept of a cadastral number
A cadastral number is a unique number assigned to a land plot and does not involve repeating the digital code. Throughout the entire period of land use, the assigned number remains unchanged and is the basis for any documentation related to the land plot. The cadastral number remains unchanged even when transferring ownership rights or changing its intended purpose.
A cadastral number is assigned for the following actions:
- Privatization of a land plot;
- Transfer of ownership or lease of a land plot;
- Allocation or merger of land plots;
- Changes in the intended purpose of a land plot;
- Signing an act establishing boundaries.
The procedure for assigning a cadastral number to a land plot
Assigning a cadastral number is a mandatory procedure for any land plot in Ukraine. Although the process may seem complicated, it consists of several sequential steps. We will examine each of them in more detail below.
Carrying out a cadastral survey
This is a set of geodetic works aimed at accurately determining and fixing the boundaries of a land plot. It is carried out by a certified surveyor or land surveyor and involves graphically displaying the plot with all its parameters and obtaining the necessary initial data for the further development of land management documentation.
Development of documentation for establishing the boundaries of a land plot
Based on the cadastral survey data, specialized documentation is developed for establishing the boundaries of a land plot in nature or its allocation by a certified land surveyor. During the documentation process, the boundaries are also agreed with adjacent landowners to avoid disputes in the future.
Obtaining a monetary valuation of land
The normative monetary valuation is determined for the calculation of land tax, the amount of rent and state duty upon its alienation. And although the assignment of a cadastral number does not always require the preliminary receipt of such an assessment, it will definitely be needed for further operations. The normative monetary valuation itself is developed by specialists and approved by the relevant local government body.
Registration of the plot in the State Land Cadastre (State Land Cadastre)
Finally, the owner or his authorized representative submits the prepared land management documentation and applications for assignment of a cadastral number to the State Geocadastre or the Central Administrative Center. After that, the submitted documents are checked for compliance with the requirements of the legislation and a decision is issued to enter information about the land plot in the State Land Cadastre. As a result, the citizen receives an extract from the State Land Cadastre.
Assignment of a cadastral number to an old-style state act
In Ukraine, there are old-style state deeds of ownership for land plots, in particular those that have a yellow-red cover and were issued before 2002. Although these deeds have full legal force and confirm your ownership of the land, most of them do not contain a cadastral number. The absence of a cadastral number means that the land plot does not have its own unique identifier, and therefore its registration is not considered complete.
Therefore, it is recommended not to postpone the procedure and as soon as possible:
- contact a certified land surveyor;
- submit an application to the state cadastral registrar.
