How to get up-to-date data from the land registry for your local government and make full use of it on mapsfy.com
When making decisions about property, taxes, or construction, certainty is paramount for local government. This certainty is based on knowledge of the current state of the territory. Since parcels and ownership relationships change over time, working with current data from the cadastre ensures that official procedures will not only be faster, but above all factually correct and indisputable.
Many local governments do not exercise their legal right to obtain current data free of charge. The Geodetic and Cartographic Institute (GKÚ) allows local governments to request this current data as of December 31, 2025.
To save you time searching for the right forms and procedures, we have prepared detailed instructions on how to access this data and then convert it into a clear interactive map on the mapsfy.com portal.
