Registration of a court decision on real estate

Registration of a court decision

A court judgment is subject to mandatory state registration, as it is the basis for the creation of property rights. Registration of a court decision on real estate in Ukraine involves several stages and requires compliance with clear procedures.

Here is a step-by-step algorithm of actions:

• Obtaining a court decision. Obtain the official text of the court decision, which contains all the necessary information about the real estate and the right holders.
• Preparation of documents. Prepare a package of documents, which includes:
  A copy of the court decision with a stamp of entry into force.
  Application for state registration of rights to real estate.
  Documents confirming the applicant’s identity (passport, identification code).
  A notarized power of attorney (if the registration is carried out through a representative).
  Other documents that may be required in a particular case (for example, technical documentation for real estate).
• Submission of documents to the state registrar:
  Submit the package of documents to the state registrar at the Center for the Provision of Administrative Services (CPAS) or to a notary who has the authority of the state registrar.
  Pay the administrative fee for registration (if required by law).
• Verification of documents by the state registrar. The state registrar checks the submitted documents for compliance with legal requirements.
• Making changes to the State Register of Real Property Rights. If all the documents meet the requirements, the state registrar makes the appropriate changes to the State Register of Real Property Rights.
• Obtaining an extract from the register. After registering the right to real estate, obtain an extract from the State Register of Real Property Rights, which confirms the registered right.

What should you pay attention to?

Timeframe for consideration. The law provides for specific deadlines for reviewing an application for registration. As a rule, it is no more than 5 business days from the date of submission of documents.
Refusal to register. In case of refusal to register, the state registrar is obliged to provide a written refusal with the grounds. Such a decision can be appealed in administrative or judicial proceedings.
Electronic services. In Ukraine, there are also electronic services for submitting documents for registration of rights to real estate, which can greatly simplify the process.
