Cadastral Surveying

Cadastral Surveying

A surveying process that determines and documents land parcel boundaries, area, and situation for registration in the State Real Estate Cadastre Information System.

Cadastral surveying is an official surveying process where a certified surveyor determines, restores, or specifies land parcel boundaries and prepares documents for registration in the State Real Estate Cadastre Information System (NREICIS).

When is cadastral surveying needed?

  • When determining land parcel boundaries for the first time
  • When dividing a land parcel into several parts
  • When merging several land parcels
  • When restoring boundary markers that cannot be found in nature
  • When specifying data registered in the cadastre
  • When boundary discrepancies with cadastral data are found

Cadastral surveying process:

  1. Order acceptance - contract signing with land owner
  2. Archive research - analysis of previous measurements and documents
  3. Boundary inspection - checking existing boundary markers in nature
  4. Boundary agreement - obtaining signatures from adjacent landowners
  5. Measurements - determination of coordinates and area
  6. Document preparation - development of land boundary plan and deed
  7. Data submission - submission of materials to VZD

Required documents:

  • Land register certificate or extract from land register
  • Owner's identity document (passport or ID card)
  • Municipality or council decisions (e.g., land commission decision on land allocation, address assignment decision, land use purpose determination)
  • Power of attorney – if acting through authorized person
  • Existing land boundary plan (if available)
  • Contact information of adjacent landowners

Result:

After cadastral surveying, the client receives a land boundary plan and deed that is registered with VZD. These documents certify the land parcel boundaries, area, and situation, and are required for real estate transactions.
