Land registry - cancellation of rights in the land register


Frequently asked Questions

  • Only if the right is limited to the lifetime of the beneficiary(ies) according to its content or the agreements made and is not inheritable.

    If the entry in the land register states "Cancellable on proof of death", the cancellation of the right can be requested if a death certificate is submitted.

  • The claim to the benefits in arrears shall pass to the heirs.
    If a right for which (even theoretically) arrears of benefits are possible is to be cancelled before the expiry of one year after the death of the beneficiary(ies), the heirs must approve the cancellation. In doing so, proof of inheritance must also be submitted. For this purpose, reference is made to the service description for "Succession in the Land Register".
    The heirs must contact a notary public to have their signature on the deletion authorization notarized.
