Registrars are required to indicate such reasons in the notification sent to the applicant. The algorithm of actions after a decision on suspension is made depends on its grounds. In most cases, it is necessary to submit new or additional documents and eliminate violations. If the decision of Rosreestr is obviously unlawful, you can file a complaint.

What is suspension of state registration of property rights
The process of registering rights to real estate is described in Law No. 218-FZ (). Rosreestr registrars and applicants must follow it. Registration can be carried out in relation to a new object, or when transferring rights following transactions. Based on the results of reviewing the documents, one of the following decisions may be made:

- about the suspension of state registration to eliminate deficiencies and violations;
- on refusal of registration if the applicant has not eliminated the reasons for suspension within the prescribed period.
The registration process in Rosreestr is open. This means that information about the reasons for return, suspension or refusal must be communicated to the applicant, reasoned and justified with references to the law. Accordingly, the applicant can eliminate the reasons for the suspension of registration of ownership of an apartment, plot or building, or file a complaint about illegal actions.
Expert commentary. The registrar is obliged to make one of the above decisions within the time limits specified in Art. 16 of Law No. 218-FZ. Registration is given 7 days when applying directly to Rosreestr and 9 days when submitting documents to the MFC. If cadastral registration is carried out simultaneously, the deadlines will be 10 and 12 days, respectively. It is during the specified period of time that the registrar must make a decision on the documents received.

What are the consequences of suspending state registration of rights to real estate?
Suspension of registration of a right automatically extends the total duration of the procedure. This means that the owner of the property will not be able to dispose of it, and further completion of the transaction will be delayed. Even more serious problems may arise. If the violations listed in the notice of suspension of state registration of rights are not corrected, a refusal decision will be made. In such circumstances, you will have to go through the entire procedure again, or refuse the transaction.
Procedure for suspension by the applicant
If an applicant needs to suspend state registration, he can do so at any time after submitting documents. The application is submitted to the multifunctional center, Rosreestr or online through the State Services portal.
The form of the application is not established; it can be drawn up arbitrarily. It indicates the reasons (reasons) and the time required to eliminate them.
Attention! State registration can be suspended only once.
There is no fee for suspending registration.
In some cases, one application will not be enough. Art. 30 obliges all parties to the transaction to submit applications when selling an apartment if it is under mortgage. The suspension procedure occurs only upon a joint application of the parties to the transaction - the bank and the owner of the apartment. The written consent of the bank is attached to the application.
Registration suspension period
The delay in registering property rights can be up to three months. The exact timing of the suspension depends on the grounds for issuing the decision. Here is what is said on this issue in Art. 26 of Law No. 218-FZ:
- on most grounds regulated by Article 26 of Law No. 218-FZ, the procedure can be suspended for a period of up to 3 months;
- if registrars have not received information requested from other structures and departments, suspension is allowed for up to one month;
- If the inspection reveals that state registration is impossible due to arrests, prohibitions and encumbrances, the suspension will last until such grounds cease.
During the three months that the procedure is suspended, the parties may lose interest in completing the transaction. This will result in lost profits or direct damage. If registration of rights to a new object is suspended, losses will consist of the impossibility of normal operation, sale or rental of real estate.

Question to the expert
How can I find out about the suspension of registration if I have not been notified by Rosreestr?
You can contact the Rosreestr registrar in person, or send a written request. A response to an appeal must be given within 14 days.
What is better is to appeal the notice of suspension. or start eliminating violations and claims of Rosreestr?
It depends on the grounds for suspension and the nature of the violations. If it is enough to present one document, there is no point in filing a complaint.
Is it necessary to pay the state fee again if the violations have been eliminated and we ask to restore the registration?
No, the state fee is paid for a single registration procedure. There is no need to pay additional duty.
Hello! Can a suspension be made retroactively if registration has already been completed?
No, they can't. Only invalidation of a registration record is allowed, but for this, interested parties must go to court.
Deregistration 1 year after termination of registration
72. Removal from state registration of vehicles, the state registration of which has been terminated due to the expiration of the state registration of the vehicle and has not been renewed after 1 year, is carried out automatically the next day after the expiration of 1 year from the date of termination of the state registration of the vehicle.
Paragraph 72 states that if the registration of a car that was previously registered for a limited period has expired, and the car owner has not renewed such registration within a year, then the car is deregistered.
For example, a car owned by a child is registered to one of the parents. The child turned 16 years old, but he did not register the car in his name. As soon as another year passes and the child turns 17, the car will be permanently deregistered.
You need to understand that the 1-year period does not apply to other cases of termination of registration.
For example, if registration is terminated at the request of the car owner (for car repairs), then after a year the car will not be deregistered. It will be listed with the status “registration terminated” until the owner renews this registration.
When is it permissible to suspend registration of property rights?
You can find out why the registration of property rights was suspended from the Rosreestr notification. The registrar can only indicate those grounds that are expressly stated in Art. 26 of Law No. 218-FZ. If other reasons are reflected, the actions of the Rosreestr specialist can be appealed. You can get help in eliminating violations or appealing suspensions from our company.
According to the application
State registration may be suspended by decision of an official of Rosreestr. At the request of the applicants (owner, parties to the transaction), only termination of the registration procedure is allowed. This is stated in Art. 31 of Law No. 218-FZ. If you submit an application to Rosreestr to suspend registration actions, it will not be satisfied.
The procedure for terminating the registration of rights or a transaction is as follows:
- All applicants are required to submit an application (suspension of a transaction in Rosreestr based on a unilateral application from the seller or buyer is not allowed);
- if documents for registration were submitted through a notary, the same method is used when applying to terminate the procedure;
- if registration actions are carried out at the request of the bailiff, i.e. within the framework of enforcement proceedings, termination of the procedure is allowed only by a judicial act.
Termination entails the return of documents. Accordingly, no information is entered into the Unified State Register.
One of the grounds for suspension is the ban on registration actions imposed by the bailiff.
Grounds for suspension of state registration of rights
In Art. 26 of Law No. 218-FZ lists 63 grounds for suspension of registration of property rights. Most of them are associated with registry or technical errors that arise when drawing up boundary plans and technical plans. For this reason, we recommend that you carefully consider the choice of cadastral engineers. Our company employs only experienced and qualified specialists, whose documents successfully pass registration and state registration in Rosreestr.
Here are the most common reasons for the suspension of real estate registration that citizens or organizations may encounter:
- lack of rights to the object, authority to make a transaction or sign documents;
- identification of inconsistencies and contradictions with registered rights;
- lack of mandatory documents, without which registration is impossible;
- identification of counterfeit documents and unreliable information;
- the presence of arrests, prohibitions and encumbrances that make registration actions impossible;
- recognition of a transaction or regulatory act as invalid by a court decision;
- lack of notarization of documents, if this is a mandatory requirement of the law;
- registry and technical errors in documents and information;
- absence of signs of isolation and isolation for newly created premises;
- many other reasons.
Rosreestr is obliged to justify and justify the suspension. To do this, the notification indicates the essence of the violation with reference to the rule of law. Notification is always in writing and sent to applicants.
Expert commentary. There may be cases when the registrar identifies several circumstances and reasons for suspension. They may be indicated in one notification. The period of suspension of registration of property rights cannot be increased if Rosreestr has identified several specified reasons.
If the grounds for suspension are eliminated, the applicant will receive an extract from the Unified State Register of Rights with registered rights.
When can registration be refused?
Registration will be refused if the applicant has not eliminated the grounds for suspension or violated the elimination deadline. Therefore, Rosreestr cannot immediately issue a refusal decision. If you are faced with refusals, although there was no suspension previously, you can immediately file a complaint against the actions of the registrars.

Expert commentary. Cases when Rosreestr allows violation of registration deadlines occur quite rarely. The mechanism of interaction between registrars and applicants and other structures is explained in many letters and instructions. If the deadlines are violated without issuing notices of suspension, this is grounds for filing a complaint.
An incomplete package of documents has been submitted for registration
In many cases, copyright holders do not submit all the necessary documents for registration. Then the registration is suspended, and the parties have to submit missing documents. If the seller changed his last name, and one last name is indicated in the extract from the Unified State Register or in the certificate of ownership, but he already has another in his passport, they will be asked to attach a marriage certificate to the standard package of documents.
If the transaction involves minor children, their birth certificates will be needed. You can find out exactly what documents are needed for registration in each specific case on the Rosreestr portal (www.rosreestr.ru). In the “Life Situations” section, you need to select the object you are interested in (“apartment”, “residential building”, “land plot”) and the required action (“purchase and sale”, “donation”, “inheritance”), after which a window will appear with a list of necessary documents for registration, registration deadlines and the amount of state duty. In addition, Rosreestr specialists provide consultation on the package of documents via a single reference phone number 8-800-100-34-34.
But if the parties have not paid the state registration fee, the documents will simply be returned without consideration. The same applies to cases where the duty is not paid in full. If the amount is less than required, the money will not be lost; you can return the paid state duty, but for this you will have to write an application.
How to find out the reason for suspension
To determine what to do after suspension in Rosreestr, you need to know the reasons for the decision. In particular, when filing complaints, you must always provide references to the rules of the law, to evidence of the legality of your actions. Without knowing the reasons for the suspension, this is impossible to do.
Notice of suspension of registration of property rights
Rosreestr sends a notification of suspension of state registration to all applicants. This will be done by mail, or through the electronic services of State Services and Rosreestr. If the failure to eliminate the reasons is due to improper notification, it is necessary to file a complaint with the court. You can contact the registrar yourself if the legal deadline for the registration procedure has passed. If a notice has already been issued at this point, it will be issued in person.
The registrar's notice discloses the reasons for suspending registration.
Issuance of a new title upon renewal of registration
67. Renewal of state registration of a vehicle is carried out by the registration department at the place of application of the vehicle owner with the issuance of a new registration document and vehicle passport (in the absence of an electronic passport).
Clause 67 of the registration rules states that upon renewal of registration, the traffic police issues the car owner a new title . Naturally, in this case you will have to pay an additional state fee for issuing a new PTS (800 rubles).
At the same time, it is not entirely clear why a new PTS should be issued if there are still empty spaces in the old document.
What to do if registration of property rights is suspended
We will analyze the mechanism of action of the applicant if Rosreestr has suspended the registration of property rights. There is no point in filing a complaint if the registrar's decision is fully consistent with the law. It is often easier and faster to eliminate the violation by submitting additional documentation and information. Resumption of registration of property rights after suspension is formalized by a separate decision.
Elimination of grounds
Having received a notification from Rosreestr and established the reason for the suspension, it is necessary to begin eliminating the violations. The following actions may be required:
- production of new boundary or technical plans if errors and inconsistencies are identified in the initially submitted documentation;
- elimination of registry errors, including regarding border coordinates;
- proper execution of powers of attorney for representatives of the parties;
- removal of bans, arrests and encumbrances through the court or the FSSP;
- changes to contracts if violations of the law are revealed;
- submission of missing documents.
To eliminate the reasons for the suspension of registration of property rights and continue the procedure, contact our company. Our specialists know what points registrars pay attention to and how to quickly remove claims from the registry office.

Appealing the decision
A complaint about the suspension can be filed with the court or with a higher official of Rosreestr. Possible reasons for appeal:
- if Rosreestr delays registration of property rights without issuing a notice or returning documentation;
- if the registrar does not indicate one of the grounds under Art. 26 of Law No. 218-FZ;
- if the official of the Registration Chamber did not justify the reasons for his decision;
- if the suspension was issued in violation of other provisions of law.
Often, only professional specialists in the field of real estate, cadastre and construction can check the illegality of the suspension.

When preparing a complaint, you need to describe in detail the essence of the violations, provide references to legislation and judicial practice. Consideration of complaints is carried out openly, i.e. the applicant will be notified of the place and time of the hearing. If the complaint is found to be justified, the notice will be cancelled. After this, the registrar is obliged to resume the procedure and register the rights.
To eliminate the grounds for suspension, it may be necessary to prepare new technical or boundary plans.
Temporary registration for cars of minors
Let me remind you that in one of the previous articles it was said that a child under 16 years old cannot be the owner of a vehicle. That is, if a child owns a car (for example, by inheritance), then it will not be possible to register it in the child’s name. The car must be registered to one of the parents.
However, registration in the parent's name is temporary :
35. Registration of vehicles with the state for a limited period is carried out in cases where:
- the vehicle is the property of a person under the age of 16 - for the period until he reaches the specified age;
Once the child turns 16 years old, the vehicle's registration will be automatically deregistered. That is, right on his birthday, the child will have to re-apply to the traffic police to register the car in his name.
What documents are needed to renew state registration after suspension?
If the delay in registration is due to incompleteness of the submitted documents, their list will be indicated by the registrar. In other cases, everything is not so obvious. The applicant may require the following documents:
- re-made boundary or technical plans;
- acts of approval of boundaries of plots;
- a judicial act if a dispute about law has arisen;
- notarized power of attorney with the powers of a representative;
- new edition of contracts;
- legal documents from the municipality and government agencies.
If the reason for the delay is non-payment of the state duty, it is not necessary to submit the payment slip to Rosreestr. All payments received by the budget are independently verified by officials.
Expert commentary. If your registration has been stopped, please contact our specialists immediately. By trying to resolve claims on your own, you may make new mistakes and delay the deadlines even more. Some violations cannot be eliminated at all without professional specialists. For example, only a cadastral engineer can redo a technical plan or boundary plan.

Possibility of termination of registration at the request of the car owner
Let's look at another interesting innovation:
56. Termination of state registration of a vehicle at the request of the vehicle owner is carried out by the registration department on the basis of an application for registration action submitted by the owner of the vehicle or his representative.
The essence of this paragraph is that from January 1, 2021, you can stop registering simply at the request of the car owner . Previously, this option was not possible, meaning all cars had to be registered.
For example, deregistration may be necessary if the car is seriously broken down and repairing it may take a significant amount of time. The car will not drive anyway, so you can stop registering it (in this case, transport tax will not be charged).
Another example is selling a powerful car. If a person wants to sell a powerful car, the amount of transport tax on which is high (several thousand rubles per month), then at the time of sale he can stop registering. Once the car is sold, the new owner will renew the registration.
In general, this innovation should be positively received by car owners.
