Unified State Register of Real Estate is an abbreviation used to denote the unified state register of rights to real estate. The formation of the organization was stipulated by the articles of Federal Law No. 122 of July 21, 1997. But in less than 10 years of its existence, the organization was subject to repeated reforms, until in 2017 the register ceased to exist, giving way to the Unified State Register of Real Estate (USRN). The Unified State Register of Enterprises is a now non-existent body, but the abbreviation continues to be actively used by the population.
What is the Unified State Register?
Unified State Register, what this means, is indicated in the provisions of the Federal Law. So, this is a single database of all real estate objects, the maintenance of which falls on the shoulders of Rosreestr. After the formation of the organization, the virtual register was partially filled with officials. Further data entry occurred thanks to the citizens themselves, as well as the transactions they carried out with property. Registration of new properties and editing of information about old real estate should be reflected in the virtual database.
The Unified State Register decoding is familiar to every citizen who has had to face the need to participate in legal transactions with real estate. This applies to property rights to land plots, apartments, houses and dorm rooms. Unified State Register (EGRN) contains data on the following categories of objects:
- records of privatized land plots;
- cadastral information about non-privatized land;
- about private houses and apartments;
- about objects under construction (as part of preschool building or private construction);
- about individual rooms in dormitories and communal apartments;
- about objects that are in joint or shared ownership.
In addition to creating a virtual register, the State Register allows you to obtain a certificate about any desired object for additional verification.
Rules for maintaining and composition of the Unified State Register?
What are the principles of maintaining the Unified State Register? The maintenance of this register is entrusted to the territorial and head bodies of Rosreestr. Since the collection of information is a single database, and there are many people entering information into it, special rules for its maintenance have been adopted. They are designed to streamline the process of making entries, changing them and canceling them.
We can highlight the main nuances of maintaining the Unified State Register:
- all information is contained in the official language for the Russian Federation, Russian;
- when entering them, a single automated system is used;
- information must be reliable and reflect the current state of the real estate and rights to it;
- these data are open in nature, so their accessibility must be ensured;
- they are contained on paper and electronic media, but the main one today is the electronic maintenance of the register;
- the register consists of separate sections and subsections;
- the information entered into these sections (subsections) must be certified by the electronic signature of the registrar and contain the exact time and date of its completion;
- Each record is assigned a specific status (current, canceled, archived).
In addition, the information available in the register can be changed, supplemented or cancelled.

Structure of the Unified State Register
The activities of the unified state register of rights to real estate and transactions with it are carried out through official division into various structural units. This allows you to carry out work quickly and efficiently. Thus, the following divisions were organized on the basis of the Unified State Register:
- technical description of objects;
- storage of title documents, confirmation of the legal right to use and dispose of property;
- the emergence of new encumbrances or the elimination of information about monetary and legal restrictions that are no longer relevant;
- entering rental data;
- displaying information about mortgage lending;
- transactions;
- registration of contracts for temporary use of objects;
- establishment of arrest.
When preparing a unified state extract, all these categories of data are indicated in the certificate. This allows you to check the legal purity of the property before participating in real estate transactions.
What is stored in the Unified State Register of Real Estate
Please note that the structure of the government body has changed. Now it has become more convenient for legal entities and individuals.
The structure is as follows:
- Register of real estate objects.
- Register of rights and encumbrances.
- Register of boundaries.
- Registry matters.
- Cadastral maps.
- Books of accounting of official papers.
Extract from the Unified State Register
USRE, USRN, USRIP have the right to issue certificates displaying information about real estate objects. Such certificates are prepared taking into account the following principles:
- the procedure is not free, and you need to order information with the simultaneous payment of a state fee;
- individuals and legal entities, individual entrepreneurs, state and municipal authorities can request information;
- there are open and closed types of data (the difference is that open data includes only that information that does not violate the law on the protection of personal data - it is available to all applicants, and closed data is issued only in favor of property owners);
- A document can appear in two ways: electronic or on paper.
Such a certificate, if all the required details are present, has legal force. And the contents of the paper may include the following categories of information:
- type of property and location address;
- technical description of the property;
- number assigned in the cadastre;
- information about the owners;
- information about existing encumbrances;
- information about all registered persons.
This data may be required in the following circumstances:
- for state registration of property rights for the new owner;
- to replace any information about an object;
- so that the acquirer can verify the legal purity of the object;
- for sale by a transferor under a mortgage;
- for the purpose of transferring real estate as collateral;
- to receive valuables under a gift or inheritance agreement;
- to protect property rights in court
Payment of state duty
One of the principles of maintaining the Unified State Register is its openness and accessibility to any person. This means the procedure for providing (receiving) this information should be simple. However, despite its accessibility, obtaining information from the registry is not free.
Persons wishing to familiarize themselves with them will have to pay a state fee. For citizens (individuals) today it is at least 300 rubles.
But for organizations (legal entities) it is calculated starting from 950 rubles. There is also a fee for various registration actions.
You will have to pay a certain fee for registration:
- Rights to real estate.
- Encumbrances, easements.
- Share participation agreements.
- Mortgages.
- Making changes to the Unified State Register records.
Each action requires a separate fee. However, it also differs in size for individuals and legal entities. A full list of paid actions and the amount of the fee can be seen on the Rosreestr website.
Features of real estate registration
You can register new real estate or make changes to current information about property only with the personal presence of all participants in the legal transaction in Rosreestr. Citizens must independently draw up an application, as well as submit a complete package of documents confirming their voluntary participation in the transaction.
The period for generating a registration record does not exceed five working days and each interested person will have to pay an additional 400 rubles for participation in the procedure.
Rosreestr and USR are the same thing or not
At the same time, the state solved the problem of rationalizing the approach to storing information about real estate. After all, much of the information contained in the Unified State Register and the State Property Committee was actually duplicated, while both of these repositories existed independently of each other. This duplication was eliminated after their merger as part of the Unified State Register. Secondly, the geographical reference to the location of the transaction that existed before is now lost. Now a transaction for the alienation of an apartment or a plot of land located, for example, in the Far East, can be registered by submitting documents in Moscow, Belgorod or, say, Kaliningrad. Likewise and vice versa.
Independently obtaining an extract from the Unified State Register
Unified State Register can issue extracts to all applicants, regardless of whether they have ownership rights to the object. In this case, it is necessary to take into account the following features of the implementation of the procedure:
- payment of state duty is mandatory;
- it is necessary to prepare a handwritten application (when applying in person, only a signature is sufficient; when submitting an application via the Internet, an electronic signature will be required; when submitting an application by mail, copies of all documents must be notarized);
- Among the documents there must be papers confirming the sufficiency of the grounds for filing the application (signing of a purchase/sale agreement, inheritance, etc.).
If a citizen cannot independently participate in a transaction, then a representative can be involved, acting on the basis of a notarized power of attorney.
How to get a?
There are no particular difficulties in obtaining an extract. If desired, an interested citizen has the right to send a request and receive updated data on real estate in one of the preferred ways:
- Personal appeal to the territorial office of Rosreestr. You will need to present a civil passport and a payment document indicating payment of the duty. Having submitted a written request for an extract, after 5 days you can come and pick up the finished document.
- If there is an electronic signature, the order is sent through the Rosreestr website.
- Applying for paid services to specialized companies. Hired employees independently organize the process of ordering and receiving an extract, sending the completed document to the customer via courier.
The basis for consideration of the application is the application received from the individual, drawn up in accordance with the sample approved by Rosreestr.
The application reflects information about the object of interest (address and basic information from the BTI technical passport, which will help identify the object).
Receipt procedure
There are several ways to submit an appeal. You can do this:
- In person at the local branch of Rosreestr. A citizen with the originals of all papers and one copy of each document applies to the competent registrar. The official provides an application form or a completed sample, as well as details for paying the state fee. The applicant endorses the check, after which the process of checking the submitted documents and issuing an extract begins.
- Through MFC. Multifunctional centers can only accept applications and documents, transferring them further to Rosreestr for execution. This process takes a little longer and in the future the applicant will have to contact Rosreestr to obtain a certificate.
- Using Internet portals. Remote access is equally available on the State Services website, as well as on the official website of Rosreestr. To use the services, you will have to go through a preliminary registration procedure and obtain an individual electronic signature. When submitting your application, you will need to upload scanned copies of all documents. You can pay the state fee immediately when filing your application.
- Postal service. Russian Post operates through the “valuable parcel” option. This guarantees the safety of the shipment and its prompt delivery to the addressee. The nuance is that the application itself and all copies must be certified by a notary.
Real estate under control: cadastral registration and registration of rights to real estate
Any new property must be registered in the cadastral register in order to confirm the right to own it. The data is entered into the Unified State Register of Real Estate (USRN), an individual cadastral number is assigned, and a description and basic information about the property are recorded. Cadastral registration will allow the owner to freely dispose of his property: donate, sell, etc., and will also help defend his interests in controversial situations. Without cadastral registration, no transaction or operation with real estate will be recognized as legal. That is, you cannot build a house on an unregistered plot of land. Moreover, such real estate will not be considered yours at all.
If you are buying a property from an individual, then most likely the owner has already registered it with the cadastral register. If an apartment was purchased in a building under construction under an equity participation agreement, then the developer submitted documents to Rosreestr.
If a new house is built or any characteristics of a registered property are changed, for example, another floor is built and the original area is increased, then it is necessary to submit an application for amendments to the Unified State Register of Real Estate.
You can find out whether a property has been registered with the cadastral register using the Rosreestr website. To do this, you will need to fill out a form and send a request.
An even more popular service of Rosreestr is registration of rights to a real estate property . After the sale and purchase transaction is completed, you must enter information into the Unified State Register of Real Estate that you are now the owner. This requirement is sometimes forgotten by shareholders who bought apartments in residential complexes under construction. After the developer delivers the house, the owner signs the acceptance certificate and receives the keys, the owner must submit documents to Rosreestr to register rights to the new housing.
Acceptance of an apartment in a new building: we strive to eliminate deficiencies Acceptance of an apartment in a new building is a crucial moment. SPbHomes.ru will tell you how to competently accept an apartment and ensure that defects are eliminated.
Documents required for cadastral registration and (or) registration of property rights:
- Completed application according to the form presented on the Rosreestr website
- Passport and SNILS of the applicant
- Documents that are the basis for state cadastral registration and (or) state registration of rights (purchase and sale agreement, DDU, etc.)
- Receipt for payment of state duty
- Other documents. In each situation, the list of documents is individual. So that applicants can independently figure out what exactly needs to be provided, a service cheat sheet has been developed. After answering the questions in the questionnaire, you will receive a list of documents required in a particular case.
You can submit your application and documents in several ways:
1. In the offices of Rosreestr and the Cadastral Chamber. To do this, you need to make an appointment through the Rosreestr website. Registration is possible only for those users who have a personal account on the site, and it, in turn, can only be opened by registering on the government services portal. This method of submitting an application is not always convenient, since in small localities there may not be Rosreestr offices.
2. On-site application acceptance service. A specialist from Rosreestr will come to the applicant’s home and accept documents, but for now this is only available to veterans of the Great Patriotic War, disabled people of the Great Patriotic War and disabled people of groups I and II, and completely free of charge. It is planned to soon introduce a similar service on a paid basis for all categories of citizens, but for now this cannot be done due to gaps at the legislative level.
3. By post. The applicant must collect all the necessary documents, attach copies of the passports of the parties to the transaction, issue a notarized certification of the authenticity of the signature on the application and the authenticity of the transaction with the property. The entire package of documents must be sent with a description of the contents and a receipt. It is also not the most convenient method, since it will require additional costs for notary services, and there may also be shortcomings in the work of postal services.
4. Using the Rosreestr website in electronic form. In order to register the property in the cadastral register or register the right to a property online, you will need to have an account on the government services portal. Through it you can enter your personal account on the Rosreestr website. However, to complete an application, the applicant must have an enhanced qualified electronic signature (ECES). It is a digital analogue of a personal signature and is issued in advance by special licensed companies (certification centers). Without UKEP, it will be impossible to upload documents and send them for consideration.
5. Through multifunctional centers (MFCs). In our opinion, this is the most convenient way to submit an application. You need to collect the required package of documents and personally bring it to any MFC department convenient for you. An employee will help you fill out the application correctly and check the accuracy of the submitted documents. No notarization or electronic signature is required.
Rosreestr carries out cadastral registration and registration of rights to a property free of charge, but it is necessary to pay a state fee, which in 2021 is 2,000 rubles for individuals and 22,000 rubles for legal entities. Payment details are available on the website.
The application is processed within five to fifteen working days. As confirmation, the applicant will be provided with a generated extract from the Unified State Register. It can also be received in any convenient way: by mail, at the MFC or by e-mail. The preferred method of receipt is indicated when submitting the application.
Validity period of the extract from the Unified State Register
According to the general rule, the certificate is valid only for 30 days, so it will no longer be possible to use it after this period. Before the expiration of the specified period, citizens can use the extract as many times as necessary for the successful completion of the transaction.
Another term that you need to pay attention to is the duration of document production. Thus, the minimum readiness period is 5 days, and the maximum does not exceed 14 days. Therefore, to ensure the relevance of the information provided, it is better to request an extract three weeks before the designated date of participation in legal transactions.
The cost of the document depends on the form in which the response will be prepared. If the applicant only needs to receive an electronic document, he will have to pay 400 rubles. The extract will contain all required details. All you need to do is download and print it.
If you want to issue a paper certificate, you will have to pay 1,400 rubles. These figures are the same throughout the Russian Federation and are recorded in the Tax Code.
Starting from 2021, the Unified State Register of Real Estate will be replaced by the Unified State Register of Real Estate.
From January 1, 2021, the Federal Law “On State Registration of Real Estate” will come into force (with the exception of certain provisions), which will combine the cadastral registration of real estate objects and the state registration of rights to them into one accounting and registration system. What changes does the new Federal Law bring and what their essence is - let’s look at the topic in detail. And finally, the most important thing. With the onset of 2019, the law identified 51 grounds for suspending the cadastral registration and state registration of real estate. But applicants can be definitively refused to carry out both procedures only in one case: when the allotted period for eliminating the reasons that caused the suspension has expired and ended without result.
Rosreestr and USR are the same thing or not
The deadlines are calculated based on the moment the registration authority receives documents from the MFC. The new law No. 218 provides for a strict deadline for registration actions for cases of interested parties applying to the MFC - the deadline is increased by 2 working days. Until January 1, 2021, this time was not regulated and was not officially limited. Logically, a document submitted for registration must first undergo cadastral registration, then registration. However, if the application contains incorrect information about the coordinates of the object, will the registrars at the same time check the completeness of the information to register rights? Or, when the first error is detected, the first suspension will be issued, and if there are more errors, suspensions will be issued again each time? The issue is also relevant because the new law reduces the period of suspension to eliminate identified violations. A refusal means cancellation of the paid state duty.

Advantages of introducing the Unified State Register of Real Estate
The main purpose of the new register is to combine all available information about real estate located on the territory of the Russian Federation. Now from one document you can find out the history of an object, obtain information about concluded transactions, check ownership rights, obtain data on the characteristics of real estate, and identify all restrictions and encumbrances.
Let's look at what advantages replacing the Unified State Register with the Unified State Register gives us:
- availability of information. Basic information about the property is in the public domain and can be obtained by any interested party;
- the relevance of the information is ensured by the daily data update mode;
- maximum exclusion of fraudulent activities;
- there is no need to contact several institutions - now all information is stored in a single USRN database;
- real estate registration is available in any division of Rosreestr, and not just at the location of the property;
- For transactions, one extract from the Unified State Register is required.
Systematization and storage of all data on real estate in one information base has simplified the process of completing many transactions and reliably protected Russians from fraudulent activities with real estate. Now it is possible to obtain more informative documents from the Unified State Register of Real Estate.
Differences and similarities
Despite the common target value of the two indicated registers, the Unified State Register contains a more complete set of information.
Thus, the main differences between the Unified State Register and the Unified State Register will lie in the information contained in these databases:
- The Unified State Register includes information about both property rights and cadastral registration information, including cartographic data on land, technical documentation for capital construction projects, etc. (in the Unified State Register such information was either completely absent or was presented only in general form);
- receiving an extract from the Unified State Register provides the applicant with much more information than a similar document with information from the Unified State Register (in addition, an extract from the Unified State Register is a full-fledged title document);
- access to the Unified State Register is provided through the use of public resources, whereas for the Unified State Register such opportunities were significantly limited;
- The Unified State Register includes an exhaustive list of data from the State Property Committee and the Unified State Register.
Thus, now the Unified State Register has not only been renamed, but has actually been significantly expanded due to new information and opportunities.
The similarity between the Unified State Register and the Unified State Register lies in the identical meaning of both registers for the purposes of state registration. Only from the moment of entering information about the transaction into the Unified State Register or Unified State Register do the new owners of the object acquire ownership rights.
Confirmation of such a right is also carried out according to similar rules, by obtaining extracts from registers.
The composition of the information in the Unified State Register and the Unified State Register, although different in volume, allows you to obtain information about the legal owner of real estate, as well as about the form of law or the main characteristics of the objects.
Advantage of use
With the introduction of Federal Law No. 218-FZ and the Unified State Register of Real Estate, the procedure for registering objects for cadastral registration and state registration was significantly simplified by combining them into a single system.
In addition, replacing the Unified State Register with the Unified State Register has the following undoubted advantages:
- availability of information;
Basic information on real estate registration objects is in the public domain and can be obtained by any interested party in the form of an extract from the register.
- relevance of public information;
The maintenance of the Public Cadastral Map of Rosreestr, which began before 2017, is now carried out in fact in a daily data update mode.
- the time frame for registration and obtaining an extract from the register has been significantly reduced;
- the system of Multifunctional Centers, which allow receiving government services in the most convenient way for citizens, has become a full-fledged option for applying for registration of rights to real estate;
- registration of real estate under the new rules is now available in any division of Rosreestr, and not only at the location of the property, as was previously until 2021.
Thus, the state has optimized the procedure for registering rights and obtaining information about such rights.
