The National Agency for Cadastre and Land Registration (ANCPI) is carrying out property registration works in the integrated cadastre and land registry system across 1,703 administrative-territorial units (UATs), covering an area of over 5.9 million hectares.

The funding is provided from ANCPI's own revenues through the National Cadastre and Land Registration Program (PNCCF), non-reimbursable European funds, and municipal budgets. Land books are issued free of charge to citizens.

ANCPI, a public institution under the Ministry of Development, Public Works, and Administration (MDLPA), has completed systematic property registration works across 303 UATs and in 29,607 cadastral sectors, covering an area of over 6.6 million hectares.

Of these, 176 communes have benefited from European funding through the 2014-2020 Regional Operational Program (ROP) and the 2021-2027 Smart Growth, Digitization, and Financial Instruments Program (PoCIDIF).

In the last month alone, 27,484 properties have been registered using European funds. As a result, the total number of land books opened with European funds now stands at 2,198,717. Overall, ANCPI has issued more than 8.2 million new land books free of charge for citizens.

Out of the total 9.54 million hectares of agricultural land eligible for subsidies from the Agency for Payments and Intervention in Agriculture (APIA), 8.17 million hectares (86%) have been registered in the integrated cadastre and land registry system.

Currently, cadastre works are underway in 503 communes, of which 467 benefit from European funding.

The PNCCF aims to provide free registration of all properties (land and buildings) in Romania in the integrated cadastre and land registry system. The program is financed by ANCPI’s own revenues, European funds, and local municipal budgets.

ANCPI is the beneficiary of the major project "Increasing Coverage and Inclusion of the Property Registration System in Rural Areas of Romania," which complements the PNCCF objective by systematically registering 5,758,314 hectares in 660 rural UATs across Romania. The total value of the project is 312,891,155 euros.

Until December 2023, this major project was financed through the Regional Operational Program and was implemented in phases. Phase II is currently financed through the 2021-2027 Smart Growth, Digitization, and Financial Instruments Program.
