Rosreestr proposes that real estate titles issued by Ukraine in DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye, Kherson regions upon regions' entry into Russia be invalidated

MOSCOW. Jan 26 (Interfax) - The Russian Federal Service for State Registration, Cadaster and Cartography (Rosreestr) has presented a bill which regulates the recognition of real estate titles in the new Russian regions.

"Rosreestr has submitted for discussion a bill which lays down terms for the recognition and validity of titles for real estate in the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions that existed in the republics and regions on the day of their admission to the Russian Federation," the service said.

Rosreestr proposes that real estate titles issued by the Ukrainian authorities, local self-government bodies and notaries in the DPR, the LPR and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions after the day of their admission to Russia be declared null and void.

It was reported on October 5, 2022, that Russian President Vladimir Putin signed into law the bills on admission of the DPR, the LPR and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions to the Russian Federation.

The laws set a transitional period between the day of admission of the regions to Russia and January 1, 2026.
