Kinnistusregistriga

Kinnistusregistriga is an Estonian legal term meaning “with the land registry.” It is used in statutes, contracts, and official documents to indicate that a right, fact, or entry is recorded in the national land register (kinnistusregister).

The kinnistusregister is the official public database of real property rights maintained by the Estonian state, primarily through the Estonian Land Board (Maa-amet). It records information about land parcels (kinnistu), buildings (ehitis), ownership, mortgages, restrictions on disposal, servitudes, and other rights or encumbrances connected to real property. The register provides a legal framework for proving ownership and for enforcing property-related rights against third parties.

In practice, references to kinnistusregistriga appear to show that a right or obligation is legally tied to the land register. For example, ownership titles, liens, or easements that are registered there have evidentiary weight in transactions and in court disputes. Because entries are binding on successors and third parties, the land register plays a central role in property transfers, leasing, and financing.

Access to information in the land register is handled through official channels. Basic data about parcels and registered rights are publicly accessible, typically via Maa-amet’s online services, while detailed documents may require authentication or authorization.
