New Rules for Compensation in Property Expropriations

August 12, 2026

The legislation regarding property expropriations is being modernized with new rules that clarify the compensation process. It is established that compensation will have an interest rate of 3% without taxes and fees, and it will be deposited electronically. Procedures are introduced for cases of refusal to collect or the death of the beneficiary. Citizens will have 12 months to appeal to the court, with a possibility of extending the deadline. The amendments aim to improve the functionality and clarity of the compensation process.
