Municipal Cadastre: Who Qualifies and What You Get

The Municipal Cadastre is a government registry used to maintain official records of land measurements and the assessed value of properties for taxation purposes.

👤Who it's for

This scheme is designed for property owners and authorized agents who need to verify official land data or tax status.

🎁What you get

You receive official documentation regarding the specific measurements of a piece of land and its assessed value, often referred to as the "valor catastral." This information is used to determine the property's tax obligations, such as the "predial" tax.

💰What it costs you

There is a small fee required to process and issue these official records.

⚠️The catch to know

The assessed value recorded in the cadastre is often different from the actual market price of the property. When buying or selling, do not assume the tax value reflects what the property is worth on the open market.

📝How to apply

1. Gather your property identification documents.
2. Visit your local municipal office to request a record update or verification.
3. Pay the required administrative fee for the documentation.
4. Collect your official land measurements and tax value certificates.
