Serious Delays and Debts in the Land Registry Department

February 17, 2026

The Land Registry Department is facing serious delays with cases pending since 1973 and uncollected revenues amounting to €18.5 million. Cadastral applications have soared to nearly 25,000, with some taking over 17 years to resolve. Additionally, the KOT, a former semi-governmental organization, owes €272,868 to the Land Registry. Delays in taking legal actions contribute to the increase in debts. Overall, the situation reveals a frustratingly bureaucratic process in the department.
