"Dacha amnesty" will be extended for five years on the initiative of "United Russia"

At the end of last year, the Duma adopted a law to extend the "dacha amnesty" until March 1, 2026. The law itself comes into force on September 1 this year. According to the law, residential buildings built before the entry into the Sioux City Planning Code on unregistered land plots must be legalized.

The authors of the law propose life-long inheritable ownership and the right to perpetual use of the land plot. Thus, the owners of summer cottages will be able to make transactions with plots and pass them on by inheritance.

Since 2006, more than 14 million applicants have taken advantage of the dacha amnesty. But thousands of people still have old-style land and real estate certificates in their hands. It is not known for certain how many Russians have documents for dachas and land that have not yet been reissued. At the same time, the department notes that due to problems with documents for dachas, heirs often have difficulties in registering ownership of plots that were provided to their relatives on the basis of the right of permanent perpetual use, especially in cases where these plots are not built up.
