The issue of land and real estate is always relevant for citizens, as well as for organizations. Sometimes, when making transactions, you have to delve into all sorts of legal subtleties. There can be many nuances.
For example, often when making a transaction you need to take an extract or certificate from the Unified State Register of Property Rights (hereinafter referred to as the Unified State Register of Property Rights). Therefore, the topic of land and real estate accounting always remains important. How does the state maintain the land cadastre? And, most importantly, where should citizens turn if they have any questions?
The article will focus on the cadastral chamber, as a state budgetary institution, which, in accordance with the Law “On the State Real Estate Cadastre”, is authorized to perform certain functions of Rosreestr: it keeps records of land plots, makes changes to the real estate cadastre information, provides information about the registered lands to individuals and legal entities.
First, let's look at what Rosreestr is. Lawyers advise: you can find a good land cadastral company that carries out land surveying by also contacting the cadastral chamber. Cadastral chambers often post advertisements on their website about the provision of services from such organizations.
What is it: deciphering the abbreviation
Many people think that Rosreestr is the full name of the registration service. In fact, this is the abbreviated name of the organization. Sometimes the abbreviation FSRKiK is used. The full name is: Federal Service for Registration, Cadastre and Cartography of Russia. This organization has a long history.
In 1997, the State Duma decided to form a new Russian cadastral system, and three organizations were created:
- Rosregistration;
- Rosnedvizhimost;
- Roscartography.
These departments resolved cadastral issues. But their work could not be called high-quality and productive. Information was often duplicated. There was also bureaucracy. In 2004, by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 314, a new agency was created - the Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography.
For some time it existed along with Roscartography, Rosnedvizhimost and Rosregistration. Since 2009, Rosreestr has operated as a separate state body. It combined the functions of three departments.
The official date of appearance of the cadastral institution Rosreestr is March 9, 2004, and the actual date is 03/01/2009.
Is this a government service or not?
Many citizens wonder whether Rosreestr is a public or private institution. It belongs to the executive authority of Russia. This is an important service in the list of all systemic entities of the state.
The list of its services and their cost is regulated by federal regulations (for example, Tax, Civil, Land Codes). The provisions of the laws of the Russian Federation also determine the powers of employees of this institution.
Rosreestr has a fairly simple structure. It consists of the main office and territorial divisions that operate within the locality. The Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography is located in every city and district.
The central office of the department is located in Moscow on Vorontsovo Pole Street, 4a . The authorized persons of Rosreestr are the head, deputies and assistants.

In some cases, the state registration, cadastre and cartography service operates jointly with other public structures and authorities (for example, with the Ministries of Agriculture, Education and Science, Defense, Communications and Mass Communications).
Advantages and disadvantages of the cadastral chamber in Moscow
In its work, the FKP is faced with large volumes of operational information and an impressive flow of individuals, organizations, government officials and other clients who contact the institution every day on a wide range of issues.
What you can now get from the cadastral chamber:
- select an engineer in the Register of Cadastral Engineers;
- use the Public Cadastral Map;
- select the date and time to visit the FKP;
- obtain verified and reliable information about real estate in the Unified State Register of Real Estate (USRN);
- submit an application for cadastral registration;
In addition to the convenient form of interaction with the FKP, the attractiveness of electronic services is also due to the fact that it allows you to save on average 50% on the payment of state duty by an individual if you apply through the Rosreestr website. It is also significant that the organization speeds up the processing of online applications to the state cadastral registration from 9 to 7 banking days, and the period for considering applications for the issuance of information from the State Property Committee has been reduced from 5 to 4 banking days.
Pros of the chamber:
- Meet deadlines;
- They quickly begin to use new practices;
- Work to improve the quality of their activities;
- An appointment with a specialist very often makes it possible to understand how to resolve the issue of suspension/refusal of cadastral registration.
Cons of the chamber:
- Difficulty with parking;
- Making an appointment is sometimes possible only after 2-3 months;
- At an appointment with specialists, you cannot select the person who issued the suspension or refusal to carry out cadastral registration;
- Seeing a manager is usually not helpful. Very often, managers cannot know everything that specialists come up with for suspensions and refusals;
- Use any opportunities for suspensions and refusals;
- They never call cadastral engineers (this practice exists in the regions).
