As we are all aware, over the last couple of years in particular, Public Administration Offices are making a conscientious effort to ensure that the many of the Laws and Regulations that have gone unenforced for a number of years are fully applied from now on.

At this moment, the Catastro Office has initiated an inspection campaign to update its database. The Catastro Office is a Property Registry Office normally situated within the local Town Hall but should not be confused with the Land Registry Office. This registry allows the Town Hall to update its records with regards ownership, size, characteristics and value of the properties within its jurisdiction. This department must be notified whenever a property changes hands or is altered in a significant way so that the details can also be modified and if necessary its tax value updated.
