The purpose of real estate registration is to publicly disclose information about the ownership and rights related to real estate, thereby protecting ownership rights and ensuring transaction safety. Specifically, the following information is recorded in the registry:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Location of the real estate<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Owner\u2019s name<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Rights associated with the property (ownership, surface rights, mortgage, etc.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
By registering, property owners can legally assert their ownership rights against third parties. For example, in the event of a sale or inheritance, the new owner will be legally recognized as the official owner by registering the property in their name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0Registration Costs<\/strong>\u25a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When purchasing real estate, there are costs associated with registration. These costs cover the transfer of ownership or the establishment of a new owner, and it is common to hire a judicial scrivener to handle the procedure. The registration costs include the scrivener\u2019s fee and registration and license tax (a tax paid for registration).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0Certificate of Registered Matters<\/strong>\u25a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A “Certificate of Registered Matters” is a document that reflects the contents of the real estate registry and can be obtained by requesting it from the Legal Affairs Bureau. This certificate includes detailed information about the owner and the rights associated with the property, and is required for real estate transactions or when applying for loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Due to the amendment of the Real Estate Registration Act in 2021, investors are now required to update their registrations in cases of changes to their address or name. This is especially important for investors who own multiple properties. Below are key points for investors to be aware of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
