Certificate from the Unified State Register for an individual on the availability of property

Extract from the BTI - what is it, document structure

A certificate from the Bureau of Technical Inventory allows you to confirm the fact that real estate is assigned to a specific person (or, conversely, to refute it). It may also be required by legal entities. This paper can be obtained from any regional BTI. The information provided is taken from the unified real estate register.

If you need to obtain data on property registered throughout the Russian Federation, you will need to contact the national register. Regional offices can provide information only for their area.

You can request such a document regardless of whether the person owns the property or not. The Bureau will issue an extract to the following categories of persons:

citizens of the Russian Federation and their authorized representatives;
individual entrepreneurs;
judicial authorities and law enforcement agencies, representatives of other government agencies within the framework of their powers and upon the availability of a corresponding request.

Where are BTI documents issued and why are they needed?

The Moscow City Bureau of Technical Inventory (MosgorBTI) keeps records of the technical condition of real estate located in Moscow. Based on this information, various documents are issued that may be needed during real estate transactions (for example, when selling an apartment), registration of redevelopment, registration of ownership of real estate and privatization of real estate.

Features of obtaining a certificate from the BTI

At the same time, there are a number of difficulties and restrictions in obtaining a certificate from the BTI. The applicant can submit an application to the local BTI unit, which prepares the necessary documents, indicating the following points:

The information in the certificate contains only one BTI reference area. Most often, information is indicated only for one area and region of reference for a single subject of a region of the Russian Federation.
The certificate contains general information about the existence of property rights to land and capital construction projects. Separate information on objects is available only in an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate.
The BTI contains detailed information about real estate only since 1998; before this time, if local authorities provided information, it can be obtained from the Bureau itself; if not, you must contact local real estate departments.
You can also order a certificate of absence of invisibility from Rosreestr, but there you will receive information only after 1998. Until this time, there was no cadastral database in Russia.

Currently, there is no single mechanism in Russia for issuing certificates of absence of real estate. You can submit an appeal to both the local BTI and Rosreestr, if such a technical possibility exists.

Cost of information from the Unified State Register

The price of a certificate when applying in person to registration offices for individuals and legal entities will be 200 rubles and 600 rubles, respectively. The service of providing information from Rosreestr by mail is also estimated at 200 rubles. And receiving an extract by e-mail in electronic form will cost the applicant from 150 to 300 rubles. Thus, an extract from the registration chamber on the availability of property is paid insurance that will help protect participants in real estate transactions.

Certificate of real estate availability: why is it needed?

BTI are territorial representative offices of Rosreestr. A BTI certificate certifies factual information about the presence or absence of ownership of real estate, living space, etc. by a specific owner .

Obtaining information about a citizen’s real estate in any region of the country is possible only from the national cadastre. The regional BTI provides information only for its region.

Information: the document is handed over to the applicant even in cases where he does not own the property. The certificate is a document of a single sample about the presence or absence of real estate by the owner legally.

The BTI certificate refers to strict reporting documents and is issued on standard forms.

Who is eligible to receive

According to the law, the document can be issued to the following categories of applicants:

individuals (by proxy to their representatives);
individual entrepreneurs and legal entities;
government agencies (courts, law enforcement, etc.) in accordance with requests and solely within the framework of legislative powers.

For what purposes is a real estate certificate required?

How to get a certificate from the BTI and what is it for? We list the cases in which such a document is necessary:

execution of an agreement on the privatization of residential space;
obtaining a mortgage for an apartment;
registration of state subsidies to improve housing conditions;
making other transactions for an apartment, living space, etc.

Important: no real estate transaction is possible without official documents from the BTI.

How long is the certificate valid and its expiration date? This question can be answered this way. Depending on the purpose of the document, the validity period of certificates may vary: from 5 days to one year. The technical passport as a BTI document has no expiration date; it is unlimited.

Reasons for refusal to issue a certificate

The reason for refusal may be different cases. Mainly:

missing documents or data errors; lack of information in Rosreestr;
unpaid state duty;
if the request is sent from an outsider.

Only the person in whose name the property is registered can receive the certificate.

Important! If the authorities refuse to issue certificates, this action of the state authorities can only be appealed in court. Obtaining a refusal in this case is possible only in rare cases.

Application Format

In Russia, several application schemes have been developed to obtain a certificate of absence or availability of real estate.

BTI. A certificate can be obtained regarding the availability of real estate as of January 1, 1998. In some regions of Russia, the BTI may issue a certificate of availability of property even after this period, if the data has not been transferred to Rosreestr.
State Services Portal. Each region has the option of obtaining a certificate through the State Services portal. To obtain the document, a detailed procedure for obtaining the document will be indicated. You must have your passport with you, as well as a receipt for payment of the state fee.
MFC, you need to visit the “My Documents” office, fill out an application and receive a certificate.
The validity period of the document is around 14-30 days from the date of issue by the official authority. This fact must be taken into account if you need to provide data to carry out legal or other actions on the part of government authorities.

What will you need to obtain BTI documents?

To receive documents issued by MosgorBTI, you need to prepare a package of documents. These include:

an application if an individual is applying, or a letter of guarantee if a legal entity is applying (there are samples of these documents on the MosgorBTI website);
identification document;
title documents. They do not need to be submitted if the basic register contains the necessary information;
when applying by a proxy - a notarized power of attorney and an identification document of the representative;
additional documents or information - in some cases.

The following are not needed when registering: certificates on the condition of housing and non-residential facilities in the city of Moscow for the accounting city block and certificates about the housing and non-residential facilities in the city of Moscow for the accounting city block.

Sample application to the BTI for the provision of information

In order to correctly fill out a request for a relevant certificate, extract and other document from the BTI, it is necessary to take a standard application form as a template.

Don’t worry, you won’t have to write a lot and for a long time, since only half of the request is filled out by the applicant, and the other half by the BTI employee.

How much does it cost to coordinate the redevelopment of an apartment in the BTI, see the article: how much does it cost to redevelop an apartment in the BTI.

It is really important to carefully familiarize yourself with the template and enter exclusively personal information without “touching” other people’s fields.

In general, an application to the BTI to obtain specific data covers the following aspects:

Applicant information	you need to enter your passport details (number, series, when and by whom the document was issued), full name, address of permanent place of registration, address of actual place of residence, e-mail, and telephone number
Real estate information	It is necessary to provide in the request form the exact postal address, location of the property, as well as its cadastral number.
The main purpose of acquiring information from the BTI	It is imperative to indicate the exact purpose of the extract, certificate or other document (for example, for state registration of property, entry into inheritance rights, etc.).
date	the current date is indicated, placing orders on the previous or previous date is prohibited
Applicant's signature	optimally if the signature matches the one presented in the passport.

When filling out an application to the BTI, it is really important to be as careful and attentive as possible.

Any amendments, errors, corrections, as well as going beyond the lines may cause the need to re-issue a new document form.

Request for registration of ownership

In order to obtain a certificate of ownership of a property, you will have to try to collect a package of relevant documentation.

The exact list may vary depending on the requirements of the BTI and the circumstances of the applicant’s situation. Despite this, the basic documents are considered:

Title Documentation character Read also: State duty for registration of halving	on the basis of which a person acquired the right to own real estate (a document on entry into inheritance rights, a court decision, a purchase and sale agreement, etc.). During the application process, you also need to submit original documents to the BTI, which will be returned together with the property registration document. Together with the original documents, notarized copies are submitted, which will later be filed with the case materials in the BTI
Applicant's passport	When filling out the application, you need the original ID, as well as copies of the document in high quality (pages 1 to 2, as well as registration)
Individual taxpayer number	The document is needed both in original and scanned form.
Technical passport of real estate undergoing registration	in advance, it is necessary to transfer a copy of the document, certified by a notary, and hand it, together with the original, to the BTI employee

Upon completion of the procedure for checking the provided package of documentation for completeness and compliance, the person responsible for registration accepts them and in response provides a receipt for payment for BTI services.

It is still impossible to make a payment directly at the bureau, which means you will have to visit the nearest bank branch.

The payment receipt issued by the bank employee after payment must be kept. It is attached to your file and certifies the fact of payment for BTI services.

Request for a registration certificate

In case of contacting the BTI for the purpose of registration and issuance of a technical passport, it is necessary to provide the appropriate package of documentation about a certain real estate and its owner:

Documentation	certifying ownership, as well as certifying the fact that the owner of the property has no debt for utility services (provided at the office of the management company or at the local housing office)
Application for a technical passport	If such a document is available, a request may be submitted to issue a new document or to correct technical blemishes in the current registration certificate

A technical passport is the most important document for real estate.

Consequently, the procedure for producing and issuing such a document is very lengthy.

It is prohibited to make typos, blots in the document, or enter false data.

Request for a certificate of ownership under a deed of gift

If you were given a certain real estate as a gift, you need to register it correctly.

For this purpose, you can visit the local BTI branch, providing the registrar with the following documentation:

documents of title to real estate;
receipt for payment of BTI services;
request for a certificate of ownership;
passport of a Russian citizen;
deed of gift for a plot of land, apartment or house.

If you do not know the rules for filling out an application on this issue, an information stand with templates or one of the office employees will help with this.

In the institution of justice for state registration of rights to real estate

The procedure for obtaining a document from the BTI

You can obtain a certificate for inheritance about the availability of property, the acquisition of living space, real estate, etc. directly from the local BTI. You will need to prepare and submit the following list of documents:

passport;
power of attorney, if the procedure is entrusted to a trusted person;
from married citizens, a registration certificate;
birth or adoption certificate of minor children;
upon entering into an inheritance - a request from a notary about inheritance rights;
original payment document confirming payment for the cost of bureau services.

All documents are submitted in originals, followed by making copies to complete the registration case.

For the convenience of citizens, it is possible to receive the document by mail. For this purpose, you should write a written request and attach copies of the above documents, except for the confirmation document on payment for services (the original will be sent).

Both the applicant himself and his representative can obtain information about the property on the basis of a power of attorney.

Important: The law prohibits the issuance of information about other people's real estate objects of other citizens and legal entities. The applicant has the right to obtain information only about his legal real estate.

You can receive the document on the day of submitting the application after paying the cost of the service.

Option to obtain a certificate through the MFC

Single window services, the so-called multifunctional centers (MFCs), have appeared relatively recently in Russian cities. MFCs are convenient because a person has the opportunity, without leaving one building, to receive a variety of services for paperwork, including from the BTI.

A single terminal, fast service, and time savings make MFC services attractive to consumers. The only negative is that they are not yet available in the outback and therefore applicants are forced to contact the BTI directly or by mail.

How to obtain a BTI certificate from the MFC

To prepare a document from the bureau, you must contact the office of the multifunctional center nearest to you, having previously made an appointment by phone. You also have the right to consult with a specialist in advance on any issue.

Some centers do not have a pre-registration service; in this case, you need to come to the department and get an electronic queue coupon; all information can be clarified at the reception desk.

Order through State Services

Using the State Services website, it is possible to order certificates. There you can leave a request for a technical passport, floor plan, document about the address of the property and a certificate of inventory. The disadvantage of applying online is that the processing of the application begins after payment of the fee.

First you need to register on the site if you don’t already have a personal account. Then find your city. If it is not on the list, it means that such a service is not available in your city. You will have to contact the institution itself. If such a service is available, then the application must indicate personal data and contact information. After this, you need to pay the state fee. Receiving paper via the Internet greatly simplifies the entire procedure.
