When is an entry made in the Land Register?

An entry in the Land Register is made when a property, a plot of land, an apartment or a building right (superficies) is purchased or sold. The prerequisite for this is generally a Purchase Agreement certified by a notary, which serves as the legal basis for the registration.

The notarisation and submission of the documents to the competent Regional Court are usually carried out by a notary. Only once the entry has been made in the Land Register do the new ownership relations become legally effective – including all associated rights and obligations.

Thus, the Land Register entry represents the final step in officially and legally securing the transfer of ownership.
