Letter № 2951/05-15-13 of 08.06.2013
In a letter of 08.06.2013 № 2951/05-15-13, the State Registration Service stated that, under the transitional provisions of the Law «On Land Lease», holders of certificates of title to land (share) in kind (in-situ) have the right to conclude contracts for lease of farmland determined by requirements of rational organization of the territory and compact land use under these certificates.
State Registration stressed that, in order to prevent the simultaneous state registration of several lease rights to the same plot, the state registrar should request information on the contracts registered by the bodies that carried out the registration before 01.01.2013, including executive committees of village and city councils at the location of land (share).
