Guidelines for assigning a postal address to a residential building or plot
Content
Assigning a postal address to a new plot of land, residential building or other property does not occur automatically. This requires contacting your local administration. The rule is valid for private and apartment buildings. The task of assigning an address to a multi-apartment residential building is solved by the developer after commissioning, for a private house - by the owner.
The procedure for assigning a postal address to a land plot is regulated by the Rules for assignment, change and cancellation of addresses approved by Government Decree No. 11/19/2014. It is supplemented by regulations adopted by local authorities.
The address assigned to individual or apartment buildings or a plot of land must be unique and not repeated. It can be assigned to a newly built or reconstructed house, or an object divided into several parts. Thus, assigning the same addresses to different objects is impossible.
List of documents
The package of documents depends on the registration of ownership of a residential building. If the procedure has not yet been completed or the house has not been completed, then the list of documents will be different.
If the property right is registered, to assign a postal address to the property you will need:
- statement;
- extract from the unified register of rights to real estate (USRN, formerly USRE) - example of a certificate ;
- contracts or other documents on the basis of which the land and house were acquired;
- certificates of ownership of the plot and house (if any), and if not available, sufficient extracts for each object;
- cadastral extract for the plot;
- cadastral passport for the house (how to get it - read here ).
Assigning a postal address to a house under construction requires preparation:
- statements;
- extracts from the Unified State Register for the site;
- certificates of ownership (if any);
- building permits - is a prerequisite for securing an address for an unfinished house;
- cadastral extract for the plot;
- cadastral passport for the house.
Documents sent electronically must be signed with an enhanced digital signature.
To draw up and receive an act assigning an address, you must submit the above documents . There is no need to provide separate papers, for example, confirming ownership, cadastral passports and extracts. They will be requested as part of interdepartmental cooperation.
Where to submit documents
Addresses for objects are assigned by the department of architecture and urban planning under the administration of the municipality. It may have a different name from the one given, since each settlement independently resolves this issue.
You can get the necessary information about opening hours and reception days on the administration website: even for small municipalities, official online pages have been developed.
For example, in Moscow, the City Property Department is authorized to assign an address with the involvement of the BTI or district administrations.
The Moscow region and other regions have their own laws and regulations, but even there you should contact the settlement architecture departments.
Here is the address and telephone number of the Moscow Committee for Architecture and Urban Planning, where you can contact a single window and get advice on your issue .
In the video below, a professional lawyer will explain the procedure for obtaining an address.
How to get a mailing address: procedure
The procedure for assigning an address is optional: during the initial registration of ownership of a house, the owner independently decides whether to apply for the service or not. In the absence of a decision received, registration of the house is carried out on the land plot.
The assignment of an address to a private house is carried out for plots classified as lands intended for personal farming or individual housing construction: the presence of a decision allows you to register at the place of residence or temporary residence.
It is also necessary to obtain a postal address for your home in order to carry out its gasification or receive correspondence.
Submitting an application
There are several ways to submit an application:
- personally;
- through a representative;
- through State Services;
- through the MFC;
- by email.
Using the methods listed above, it is permissible to obtain a resolution to assign a postal address.
When submitting an application via the Internet, the recipient of the service should know that he will have to bring the original documents to the department.
Service delivery period
The following deadlines for completing intermediate actions are established for the service:
- the maximum wait in line is no more than 15 minutes;
- the application is registered within one working day;
- the period for providing the service is about three weeks (each administration sets the terms independently: in Moscow it is 18 working days, in some regions 12 calendar days. More detailed and accurate information for each administration is provided on the State Services portal and on official websites).
Result
Based on the results of consideration of the package of documents, three types of decisions can be made:
- assigning a postal address to the house;
- refusal to allocate a postal address;
- suspension of actions is highlighted as an intermediate stage.
A positive answer is formalized in a decision or act. If defects are discovered in the documents or actions are suspended until the deficiencies are eliminated. The maximum period provided to the property owner is 10 working days. If the applicant does not provide the correct papers within the prescribed period, the application will be rejected.
Why do they refuse?
It is officially established that refusal to provide a service is possible if:
- the submitted documents contain blots, erasures, typos, crossed out words, corrections;
- the document is written in pencil;
- not all documents are presented;
- the applicant did not submit original documents after sending the application through State Services.
Before the adoption of acts regulating the procedure, there were more reasons for refusal. For example, the administration could refuse due to the lack of territorial planning documents. Currently, the list of reasons for refusal is exhaustive and refusal to assign an address to a house on flimsy grounds is illegal.
If a refusal to assign an address is received, the applicant has the right to appeal it in court or correct the shortcomings and apply again with an updated package of documents. We advise you to contact our lawyers and they will help you solve the problematic issue - ask for help .
Legal practice
In relation to a residential building, it is quite easy to obtain an address - the procedure is simple and does not raise any special questions. In some cases, non-standard situations still arise.
Cancellation
The owner can not only obtain, but also cancel the postal address on the following grounds:
- the object is destroyed (for example, completely burned down or demolished);
- the object is not registered in the cadastral register;
- got a new address.
Cancellation due to the physical destruction of an object is possible only after its removal from the cadastral register. At the same time, the numbers of all premises in the destroyed building are cancelled.
Cancellation of a previous address is impossible without assigning a new one.
SNT
Horticultural non-profit partnerships are associations of citizens for the purpose of gardening and resolving issues related to the implementation of this task. Currently, houses in SNT are used less and less often as dachas and much more often for permanent residence.
In a house located in SNT, you can also register for registration. To do this, you need to register the assignment of an address to the house. A property owner can obtain a postal address in SNT according to the same rules as for an ordinary house: there is no difference.
It is enough to prepare the package of documents described above and submit it to the administration of the municipality in which the partnership is located.
Same addresses
When constructing new buildings in an already built-up area, it happens that the address assigned to the object is given to another. As a result, confusion arises, especially if one of the objects is a private residential building.
This issue can only be resolved in the architecture department of the administration. The owner should make an appointment and bring with him all documents related to his property.
Two houses on one plot
You cannot get 2 different addresses for one site. But it is possible to delimit the area, as a result of which two new objects will appear. After receiving cadastral passports and new addresses for them. Accordingly, if you change an already registered property, you should update the data in the register of rights to real estate through Rosreestr: not only the number will change, perhaps also the street on which the plot is located and its area.
Thus, in an apartment building, a separate postal address will be assigned only after it is put into operation. The developer is addressing this issue.
For individual properties, everything is simpler - a private residential building can be assigned a postal address during the construction stage. To do this, you just need to obtain a building permit and take it to the architecture department.
The list of documents is exhaustive and the administration has no right to demand other documents not listed in the list. Moreover, individual documents are requested through interaction channels, so asking officials to provide them is also prohibited.
