When is address assignment required?

Any real estate object, new building, reconstructed building, mansion, divided into parts between owners, can be assigned a number by which it will be easy to find its location.

In November 2014, Government Resolution No. 1221 was issued. It lists uniform rules and regulates the procedure by which an address is assigned to a property.

Important . The above rules clearly indicate that the services of real estate control authorities are free of charge.

It is necessary to submit documents to assign an address to real estate in order to enter into purchase and sale transactions, donate, inherit or lease. Addressing allows government agencies to control objects in a given area, so the owner will not have problems if the city authorities decide to begin capital construction without listening to the homeowner's objections.

Having a legal right, confirmed by relevant documents, he will be able to resist the raider takeover. This will be difficult to do without specifying the location of the object, which allows you to secure ownership.

The owner of a house on a summer cottage may also be faced with the question of how to assign an address to the building. To formalize the sale, donation or inheritance of a house in the garden, you need to register the building. In a gardening non-profit partnership (SNT), a house is assigned a number so that it becomes possible to register, receive compensation in the event of unauthorized demolition, etc.

You can assign a number not only to residential buildings, but also to real estate objects not intended for residential use:

parking lots;
stadiums
warehouses;
offices;
shops;
markets.

If at one time the building was deprived of its place of registration for any reason, and the reason for the refusal has lost its legal right, then it is necessary to begin again the collection of documents for its assignment. Owners of all listed properties must take steps to have them listed on the state register.

The law on assignment of addresses indicates the legitimacy of the procedure, which requires compliance with the regulations, which prescribe the procedure for receiving a free public service.

When constructing an apartment building or cottage, the object is assigned a “construction” number, which does not require state registration. After completion of construction, each apartment is assigned a police address, which becomes actual after the commissioning procedure.

In Moscow, a property address is also assigned after receiving approval from the department of architecture and urban planning, but the procedure is slightly different from the generally accepted one.

Shift order

Land owners need to know who assigns address data to properties and how they can change it.

IMPORTANT! If there is a change in the address assigned to a country house or cottage, it is necessary to update the information in the cadastre.

The municipality must notify the Cadastral Registration Authority of a change in the address of the property and provide a copy of its decision. It is expected that a law will be adopted that will improve the exchange of information between municipal authorities and the State Control Committee regarding the addresses of land plots and construction projects.

Thanks to the new law, it will be easier to use address information for state and municipal purposes. It is planned to create a special body with powers from the Government, which will directly establish the name of the street and the corresponding house number in the village or city.

When, by decision of the municipality, the address of the site or house has changed, what should the owner do? You should check in the Unified State Register to see if the address data in the cadastral passport has changed. Information must always be accurate and reliable, this will allow you to carry out various real estate transactions without any problems.

Why do they refuse?

It is officially established that refusal to provide a service is possible if:

the submitted documents contain blots, erasures, typos, crossed out words, corrections;
the document is written in pencil;
not all documents are presented;
the applicant did not submit original documents after sending the application through State Services.

Before the adoption of acts regulating the procedure, there were more reasons for refusal. For example, the administration could refuse due to the lack of territorial planning documents. Currently, the list of reasons for refusal is exhaustive and refusal to assign an address to a house on flimsy grounds is illegal.

If a refusal to assign an address is received, the applicant has the right to appeal it in court or correct the shortcomings and apply again with an updated package of documents. We advise you to contact our lawyers and they will help you solve the problematic issue - ask for help.

List of documents

The package of documents depends on the registration of ownership of a residential building. If the procedure has not yet been completed or the house has not been completed, then the list of documents will be different.

If the property right is registered, to assign a postal address to the property you will need:

statement;
extract from the unified register of rights to real estate (USRN, formerly EGRP) - an example of a certificate;
contracts or other documents on the basis of which the land and house were acquired;
certificates of ownership of the plot and house (if any), and if not available, sufficient extracts for each object;
cadastral extract for the plot;
cadastral passport for the house (how to get it - read here).

Assigning a postal address to a house under construction requires preparation:

statements;
extracts from the Unified State Register for the site;
certificates of ownership (if any);
building permits - is a prerequisite for securing an address for an unfinished house;
cadastral extract for the plot;
cadastral passport for the house.

Documents sent electronically must be signed with an enhanced digital signature.

To draw up and receive an act assigning an address, you must submit the above documents. There is no need to provide separate papers, for example, confirming ownership, cadastral passports and extracts. They will be requested as part of interdepartmental cooperation.

Algorithm of actions

The order is determined by the registration features:

registered ownership;
the site is not registered;
the previous address is canceled and a new one is assigned in the order of division.

The sequence of appropriation for formalized or unregistered property rights is largely similar:

submitting a request with title documents for land and house;
additionally, a building permit is provided if the site is not registered;
preparation of a resolution;
registration of a cadastral passport;
entering information into Rosreestr.

According to Federal Law No. 218 of July 13, 2015 “On State Registration of Real Estate,” the owner receives an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate. It contains information about cadastral registration, and a specific person is indicated as the owner.

When it comes to dividing a residential building, the procedure remains unchanged. But an additional court decision is required. As soon as the resolution is provided, the owner can register at the place of stay or residence and install main gas.

If an apartment building is being built, the address is assigned after its full completion. When the state commission accepts it, an appropriate decision is issued. It is submitted to Rosreestr, and all existing apartments receive an address automatically. Only after completion of this procedure can the apartments be transferred to equity holders or buyers of finished housing.

Note! The procedure is free of charge and does not require a state fee.

Where to contact

The regulation instructs the owner of the object to contact the government authorities or the administration of the locality with documents in the area in which the addressable object is located.

In addition to the procedure established by government regulation, authorities adopt local regulations that prescribe the conditions and necessary documents for obtaining a unique number. After review and verification, the head of the organization issues an order to prepare an order for assigning an address to the property.

Important . Before developing a site, you must have permission for these actions from the architecture department or from the local administration, whose competence includes the provision of public services.

Newly formed allotment

The owner of a plot, which is divided into several, submits to the department involved in urban planning a survey file, a certificate of title to the land area, and documents on the division.
The division of the plot is carried out by consent or after a court decision. These documents are also accompanied by a statement from the owner of the plot.

Local authorities, making a positive decision on the application, assign each of the newly formed areas its own address and numbering. Next comes the preparation in paper and electronic form of a boundary plan with new boundaries. A mandatory stage is registration in the State Register of new areas.

Sometimes a site is first registered, only then does it receive an address and postal number . This procedure does not violate the law, so authorities should not refuse to allocate a number.

How to get a mailing address: procedure

The procedure for assigning an address is optional: during the initial registration of ownership of a house, the owner independently decides whether to apply for the service or not. In the absence of a decision received, registration of the house is carried out on the land plot.

The assignment of an address to a private house is carried out for plots classified as lands intended for personal farming or individual housing construction: the presence of a decision allows you to register at the place of residence or temporary residence.

It is also necessary to obtain a postal address for your home in order to carry out its gasification or receive correspondence.

Submitting an application

There are several ways to submit an application:

personally;
through a representative;
through State Services;
through the MFC;
by email.

Using the methods listed above, it is permissible to obtain a resolution to assign a postal address.

When submitting an application via the Internet, the recipient of the service should know that he will have to bring the original documents to the department.

Service delivery period

The following deadlines for completing intermediate actions are established for the service:

the maximum wait in line is no more than 15 minutes;
the application is registered within one working day;
the period for providing the service is about three weeks (each administration sets the terms independently: in Moscow it is 18 working days, in some regions 12 calendar days. More detailed and accurate information for each administration is provided on the State Services portal and on official websites).

Result

Based on the results of consideration of the package of documents, three types of decisions can be made:

assigning a postal address to the house;
refusal to allocate a postal address;
suspension of actions is highlighted as an intermediate stage.

A positive answer is formalized in a decision or act. If defects are discovered in the documents or actions are suspended until the deficiencies are eliminated. The maximum period provided to the property owner is 10 working days. If the applicant does not provide the correct papers within the prescribed period, the application will be rejected.

Where to submit documents

Addresses for objects are assigned by the department of architecture and urban planning under the administration of the municipality. It may have a different name from the one given, since each settlement independently resolves this issue.

You can get the necessary information about opening hours and reception days on the administration website: even for small municipalities, official online pages have been developed.

For example, in Moscow, the City Property Department is authorized to assign an address with the involvement of the BTI or district administrations.

The Moscow region and other regions have their own laws and regulations, but even there you should contact the settlement architecture departments.
