How do I get a copy of a co-ownership policy?
Verified 13 March 2024 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)
The process differs depending on whether it is done by the owner of the dwelling or the tenant.
Owner
At the time of the act of purchase, the owner of the lot receives a copy of the co-ownership regulation and the condominium trustee has a copy.
In case of loss of the co-ownership settlement, it is possible to obtain a copy from another co-owner, notably a member of the trade union council.
If no one has been able to provide a copy of the regulations, it should be requested from the condominium trustee. However, the latter may provide for billing to provide this service (variable fees depending on the contract of trustee of condominium).
A copy of the co-ownership rules can also be obtained from the land advertising service. The copy costs €30. The request must be made through a form. This form differs according to the date of registration of the co-ownership settlement (after 1956 or before).
Condominium by-law registered in 1956 or later
This form must be submitted in 2 copies (simple or registered mail) to the property advertising department of location of the accommodation.
Co-ownership settlement registered before 1956
This form must be submitted in 2 copies (simple or registered mail) to the property advertising department of location of the accommodation.
Tenant
A copy of the co-ownership rules is return to tenant.
In case of loss of the co-ownership settlement, it is possible to obtain a copy from the landlord.
If the landlord could not provide a copy of the regulation, it is possible to ask the condominium trustee (who is not obliged to accept) or to the real estate agency that manages the property. This copy may be invoiced.
