307,000 private owners register land since 2016

More than 307,000 Georgian citizens have registered land since 2016 when Georgia simplified its land registration procedures and removed barriers facing private owners who want to officially register land.

Amendments to the legislation included:

• Development of a unified standard for surveying drawings;
• The state will help private owners to proccure ownership documents;
• The state will help owners to resolve land disputes.

The new rules were introduced by the Minister of Justice of Georgia following consultations with industry insiders.
