Notice of prohibition of disposing of the ownership

1. Does your national system admit such restriction?

This land register system envisages this kind of notice or includes the possibility of registering a notice as such.

2. In your system, once registered this restriction, does it block or freeze subsequent registrations (mostly the ones promoted by the owner of the property) until being removed?

Once registered this restriction, it implies a warning to third parties but does not block or freeze subsequent registrations.
Subsequent registration may come pending, but the registration application shall be left in abeyance to wait the final decision of the court, real estate administrator or the authority acting in the case (bailiff).

3. In your system, in principle, will the registration of this restriction be temporary (under a deadline) or indefinitely (it will be in force until being removed)?

Removal of this registration demands the notice from the authority (the bailiff) or from the estate administrator.

5. Please, give us an idea about the characteristics of the registration of this restriction in your system

• The court makes decisions concerning foreclosure, seizure, proceedings of bankruptcy and restricting the enterprises. The bailiff can also make decisions concerning the foreclosure. The court or bailiff sends the notice of restriction to the land register. In bankruptcy and restructing of enterprise the notice must be sent to the land register by the estate administrator after the court has made it’s decision of opening the proceedings.
• Nowadays the bailiff can make registration of restriction (foreclosure) directly to the land register and also remove the registration directly from the land register.
• The court and the estate administrator must send a separate notice to the registrar. Registrar must enter the restriction to register at the same day the notice has arrived. The removal of restriction demands also a separate notice to the registrar from the court or the estate administrator.
