The Bulgarian cadastre and property register act and the pertinent project

Evtimov, Vladimir

The new Cadastre and Property Register Act (CPRA, April 2000) of Bulgaria was called upon by the mass restitution and privatisation of real property which took place in the 1990s, and the need to support the emerging land markets. To implement the CPRA and its long term programme, the Government has launched an extensive, nationwide, five-year project supported by the World Bank in 2001. The paper describes the model of cadastre and land registration set by the CPRA and its secondary legislation, as well as the background, present status, forthcoming tasks and pending issues of the Cadastre and Property Register Project.
