Land registration
Apartments, houses, lands, constructions
In a constantly changing society, real estate undergoes constant transformations. These changes may affect their form, size, destination and legal status. They can be the result of human activities, real estate transactions or natural phenomena.
The cadastre is an essential system of inventory and record of real estate properties and plays a fundamental role in identifying, understanding and presenting changes in the evolution of real estate, providing vital information for the planning and sustainable development of our community.

Cadastral services offered
First registration in the land book
The first registration in the land book is the procedure by which a property located on the territory of the country is assigned a cadastral number and is registered in the land book, thus proving the existence of the registered real or personal right. Types of real estate properties for which the first registration in the land book is necessary:
- Apartments, commercial, administrative, technical spaces and others - called individual units - represent properties located in a condominium (construction that includes both exclusive parts - individual units as well as common parts)
- Lands located within the built-up area (with or without constructions) or outside the built-up area
- New constructions - valid for constructions built based on a building permit for which there is a commissioning final report upon completion of works and a construction attestation certificate.
The first registration operation in the land book is carried out only once for each property, the subsequent transaction does not require a “new cadastre”, it is sufficient to tabulate the ownership right in the land book.
Cadastral updates
This kind of operations is necessary for situations when the property technical data (part I of the land book) undergo changes:
- Changes to the shape and surface of the building - when the surface or the cadastral limit of a building must be changed (following an overlap or a dispute or others)
- Changes to the regime outside the built-up area / within the built-up area - a land outside the built-up area is transferred within the built-up area regime based on a local council decision.
- Dismantlement / demolition of constructions - in the event that a construction is demolished under a demolition permit and the commissioning final report upon completion of works, the cadastral update is carried out in order to deregister the demolished constructions from the land book.
- Extensions or floor-additions of the constructions - if a construction is modified by an authorization issued by the City Hall, following the completion and reception of works, an updated documentation is drawn up.
- Changes to the postal address - when a building receives a postal number or this one is changed, the cadastral documentation undergoes an update, so that these changes are recorded in the cadastral records and the land book.
- Adjustments of interior partitions - when authorized interior partitioning works are performed for a construction or individual unit within a condominium.
- Endorsement of the internal surveys of a construction - for situations when the constructions were registered in the land book without the endorsement of the internal surveys. In such a case, under an updated documentation, the internal surveys of the constructions are submitted to OCPI.
- Corrections of material errors - if the cadastral documentation contains material errors, these ones are corrected through a updated documentation of technical data.
Dismantlement
Dismantlement is the operation by which a building registered in the land book is divided into several buildings, each building resulting from the dismantlement will receive a new cadastral number.
- Land dismantlement - a land-type building registered in the land book can be dismantled into two or more lands. The dismantlement in two batches can be done directly, for dismantlement in more than two batches. The owner shall obtain in advance an Urban Planning Certificate for dismantlement or shall authorize us to carry out this procedure.
- Individual units dismantlement (UI) - individual unit buildings (spaces inside a construction: apartments, commercial spaces, administrative spaces and others, which are registered in the land book) can be dismantled into two or more units, provided that the resulting units are separated by fixed partitions and have separate entrances.
- Building dismantlement / division into apartments - is the operation by which a building registered in the land book is dismantled to create individual units (apartments, storage spaces, indoor parking, commercial spaces, others.) Through this operation, the building becomes a condominium that will contain units to be exclusively owned and common parts. The division into apartments is the last cadastral operation that is carried out within a residential project.
Annexations
Annexing a real estate is a legal procedure by which two or more separate properties are joined to form a single new real estate property.
- Annexing land - two or more land-type properties registered in the land book can be annexed to create a new property. The annexing cadastral operation can be carried out directly in the situation where two lands are annexed: in the case when more than two lands are annexed, the owner shall obtain in advance an Urban Planning Certificate with a view to annexing or shall authorize us to carry out this procedure.
- Annexing individual units (UI): two or more buildings of the individual unit type (apartments, commercial spaces, administrative spaces) within a construction can be annexed to form a new space. Interior partitions cannot be changed through the annexing cadastral operation.
Technical opinions
The technical opnions represent planimetric and altimetric site plans taken into account by the Offices of Cadastre and Land Registration. These opinions are requested by the Mayors through the urban planning certificates issued. These are of several types:
- Technical opinion for starting works - issued by OCPI, required for any work of photogrammetry, cartography, cadastre, geodesy, as well as for works exceeding 100ha or any work of PUG and PUZ type, regardless of the surface.
- Technical opinion for PAC - (Construction Authorization Project) can be obtained for any land-type property registered in the land book and which does not show overlaps in the cadastral database.
- Technical opinion for PAD - (Demolition Authorization Project) can be obtained for any land-type property on which a building to be demolished is registered.
- Technical opinion for PUD - (Detailed Urban Plan) can be obtained for any land-type property registered in the land book and which does not overlap with other parcels in the cadastral database. For this opinion, it is necessary to have an Urban Planning Certificate.
- Technical opinion for PUZ - (Regional Urban Plan) can be obtained for one or more properties registered or not registered in the land book. For this opinion, it is necessary to have an Urban Planning Certificate.
- Technical opinion for the elaboration of PUG - (General Urban Plan) is intended to cover the entire administrative territory.
Întrebări frecvente (FAQ)
What documents do I need to prepare for cadastral and tabulation?
The documents differ depending on the cadastral operation: first registration, update, dismantling, joining or registration of a construction. For new constructions, the building permit, the acceptance report upon completion of the works and the building attestation certificate are required. The complete list is established after verifying the situation of the building and the existing documents.
What is the difference between cadastre and tabulation?
The cadastre is the system for inventorying and recording real estate. Tabulation represents the registration of a right in the Land Registry. Upon first registration, the property receives a cadastral number and is registered in the Land Registry.
How long does the cadastral and tabulation process take?
The duration depends on the requested operation and the cadastral situation of the property. For residential projects, Xplorate submits the cadastral documentation to OCPI within a maximum of three working days from the receipt of all requested documents. To this interval is added the OCPI settlement term.
Do I have to make a new cadastre for every sale?
No. The first registration in the Land Registry is made only once for each property. For subsequent transactions, the tabulation of the property right of the new owner is sufficient.
What do I do if there is an overlap with neighboring properties?
In the event of an overlap, a cadastral documentation update of the technical data may be required. This allows the modification of the area or the cadastral boundary, depending on the situation identified. Xplorate checks the existing documentation and determines the necessary steps.
What information is needed for a quote?
For bidding, the address and type of the property, the desired operation and the current situation in the Land Registry are required. If available, you can send the cadastral number, the land registry extract and previous cadastral documentation. For residential projects, the estimated number of individual units is also useful.
How much does cadastre and tabulation cost?
The cost is determined after analyzing the requested operation and the cadastral situation of the property. Send the available information and documents to receive a quote tailored to the work.
