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:
- Order acceptance - contract signing with land owner
- Archive research - analysis of previous measurements and documents
- Boundary inspection - checking existing boundary markers in nature
- Boundary agreement - obtaining signatures from adjacent landowners
- Measurements - determination of coordinates and area
- Document preparation - development of land boundary plan and deed
- 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.
