How to register the Electronic Building Identity - Procedure

This can only be done by an authorized engineer, once you have provided the relevant required documents. In the first phase, the plot / field must be registered and in the second the property. The engineer then issues the Building Identity Certificate. Each Quote has its own authenticity key and an exclusive ID Code.

The engineer then applies for the issuance of a Certificate of Completeness of Building Identity, which includes his own certificate that the property has (or does not have) arbitrariness and whether any arbitrariness has been settled, as well as the details of the Extract.

What documents are needed for the registration in the Electronic Building Identity

According to law 4495, the following supporting documents are required:

The study of distribution of building costs (if any).

Which buildings is the issue of Electronic Building Identity

As already mentioned, all buildings and subdivisions that are either transferred (for old buildings and properties) or issue new building permits (for new buildings and properties). Also, they must issue an Electronic Building Identity arbitrarily, in order to complete the declarations.

Now, as for the time frame given to older buildings to register their Electronic Building Identity, it depends on the category to which they fall. The first category includes buildings or independent divided properties of specific use (eg, which belong to the State, tourist accommodation over 300 sq.m., gas stations, hospitals, etc.), according to law 4495 / 2017. These buildings have a margin of up to 5 years for the registration of Electronic Building Identity. For all other buildings or stand-alone properties, submission is mandatory at the time of transfer.
