Typically, based on what is in effect today, you can declare your assets without paying a penalty until the end of the year. However, according to sources familiar with the matter, there remains the possibility that those who do not declare their ownership will not pay a fine even in 2023. The process can also be done electronically without having to go to the Land Registry.

2. I forgot to declare my real estate and the post expired.

Don't worry, even if the post has expired, you can still declare your property. Even if you submit your declaration late, you ensure that the titles and topographic maps you have will be taken into account. Your contact details are also registered and you receive notifications.

3. I forgot to register my real estate and a Land Office has opened in my area, but the registrations have not been finalized.

In this case your property will appear in the original records as "unknown owner" and you will have to correct the records through a judicial or administrative process as the case may be, within a certain period of time.

4. I forgot to register my real estate and a Land Registry Office was opened in my area, and even the registrations were finalized.

In this case your property appears in the final records as "unknown owner" and all you can do is claim compensation.

5. I declared my real estate but forgot to check it during posting.

After the posting, the data is processed by the Land Registry Office and then the opening of the Land Registry Office in place of the Mortgage Registry. There, you can check your registration and if you object to correct it as long as it does not affect the property of someone else or the State and you have the evidence to prove your claims.

6. I made a correction request, but forgot to be informed about its results.

After the processing of your correction request, the Land Registry Office Report is published for your information, which includes a rationale for accepting or rejecting your request. If this concerns the "displacement" of a right of ownership or usufruct or the correction of geometric elements of a plot of land outside of "acceptable deviation", then, whether you agree or disagree with the Report, you must within a period of 30 days complete the relevant fields within the application, inform those owners affected and attach the proof of notification you sent to the affected owners, otherwise your rectification request will be rejected.

If you were told you were an affected owner, you had 30 days to either agree to the correction or object with reasons. Since this deadline has passed, it is considered that you consent to the correction according to the prepared Report.In the event that the request for correction does not concern the "displacement" of a right or the correction of geometrical data of a plot of land outside of "acceptable deviation" and the presentation of data is pending, then you can additionally submit these data to the Land Registry Office.

8. I stated correctly, they asked me for clarifications and additional information, but I forgot.

In this case it depends on what phase the area is in where you have real estate. If there is no Land Registry Office, you can contact the relevant Land Registry Office and submit the additional information.

If you draw up an inheritance acceptance contract for a property that you have already submitted a declaration, you do not need to re-declare ownership or pay a fixed land registry fee. After the contract has been transferred to the Mortgage Registry or the Land Registry Office, submit a free Application for the Deposit of Supplementary Data by attaching a simple copy of the title and transfer certificate.

10. I declared a larger area in the Land Registry and forgot to correct it in E9.

The statements in E9 will fully agree with the statements of the Land Registry. If after the cross-checks between AADE and Land Registry it is found that you declared a smaller area in E9, you will pay additional ENFIA with interest and a penalty for submitting inaccurate property tax returns.
