Legal basis and things to bear in mind

  • Registering a surplus in area corrects an error in the registry data; it cannot be used to alter physical reality by absorbing separate properties.
  • The registrar will notify the registered owners of the neighbouring properties affected. If any are unknown, or after two failed attempts, notice will be given by public notices in the BOE (Official State Gazette).
  • To register a property for the first time with a public title, if there is no reliable prior title, a notarial acta de notoriedad will be required.
