What to know about the Hungarian land offices

The maintenance of the countrywide land registration system and case management concerning land and other real estates are the main duties of the territorially competent district land offices.  In Hungary, there are 5-8 district land offices in each county; since 3 January 2008, in Budapest, three land offices of district level have been working. The district land offices have been keeping and updating the records of land registration data by settlements, and within that, by locations (urban and rural area; earlier a third category, the so-called „hobby garden” was used too). Within the district land offices, client services are responsible for the receiving of applications from and supplying data for the clients.
