A gift for everyone: the dacha amnesty extended until March 2031

The corresponding law was signed today, December 30, by Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to the document, over the next five years, it is possible to register in a simplified manner buildings on garden plots, plots for individual housing construction and personal subsidiary plots.

In August, the bill was submitted to the head of the State Duma Committee on State Construction and Legislation, Pavel Krasheninnikov, and at the end of last year, the Duma adopted a law to extend the "dacha amnesty"* until March 1, 2026.

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. A number of citizens have not yet reissued their documents for dachas and land, their exact number is not known. At the same time, 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.
