pitkäsoikeat
Pitkäsoikeat, also known as long rights, are a type of legal instrument used in Finland to secure the rights of a person or entity to a specific piece of land. They are typically used when the land is owned by the state or another public entity, and the owner wishes to secure their rights to the land for a long period, often indefinitely. Pitkäsoikeat are not transferable, meaning that the rights cannot be sold or inherited, and they can only be used by the person or entity who originally obtained them. The process of obtaining pitkäsoikeat involves submitting an application to the relevant public authority, which will then review the application and make a decision based on the criteria set out in the relevant legislation. Once granted, pitkäsoikeat provide the holder with a secure and long-term right to use and develop the land, subject to any conditions set out in the instrument. Pitkäsoikeat are an important tool for securing land rights in Finland, and they play a significant role in the country's land use and development policies.
