The division of a land plot may become necessary in various life situations. This may be related to the owner’s desire to sell, gift, or exchange only part of the plot. In addition, the division is often carried out during the distribution of property among co-owners or to transfer the land as an inheritance to several heirs. It is important to remember that this process applies to land plots of any form of ownership: private, communal, or state.
The main rules for land plot distribution
Preservation of land parcel designation: When dividing a parcel, its designation must remain unchanged. Any changes are only possible after the new parcel is registered in the State Land Cadastre and the rights to it are entered into the State Register of Real Rights on Real Estate.
Compliance with restrictions: During the allocation of a land plot, all existing usage restrictions are automatically transferred to the newly created plots, except in cases where the restrictions apply only to the part not included in the new plot.
Agreement of third parties: If the plot is leased or is subject to a pledge, distribution is possible only with the written consent of the relevant parties and the re-registration of all existing contracts.
Size and shape compatibility: After the division, the area should remain suitable for further intended use, in accordance with its size and shape.
The procedure for dividing a land plot
Registration verification: The first step is to verify the registration of the plot in the State Land Cadastre and the State Register of Real Estate Rights.
Preparation of technical documentation: Conclude a contract with the land management organization for the development of technical documentation.
Geodetic works: Conduct topographic and geodetic surveys and create the necessary technical documentation.
Submission of documents: Transfer documents through the CNAP to the territorial department of State Geocadastre for the registration of new plots.
Examination of the application: The application is examined by the cadastral registrar, after which the state registration of new plots takes place with the issuance of the relevant extracts.
Property registration: The final step is the registration of ownership rights for the newly created plots through the Registration Service or a notary.
The cost of land plot division
Dividing a plot of land usually costs from 5 thousand hryvnias. The cost depends on the complexity of preparing the technical documentation and possible additional procedures.
Remember that land division is a responsible process that requires careful preparation and compliance with all legal requirements. This will help avoid potential legal complications in the future.
