Samobud is a house built without the permission of local authorities. The self-build owner does not have ownership documents, which means he cannot fully use the home. Without the legalization of arbitrary development, it cannot be bought or sold, gifted, bequeathed or leased.

There are two ways to obtain documents for the right to use housing: judicial procedure and district administration.

Court procedure: Self-build can be legalized through the court. To do this, you need to file an application with the court, wait for the case to be considered and the court's decision. However, practice shows that the court does not always approve such claims. In such a case, a court decision recognizing the right of ownership of an unauthorized construction does not give the owner the right to exploit this object without putting it into operation in accordance with the procedure established by law. In order to increase the chances, the owner of the self-build building needs to provide certificates from the district department of architecture, the fire service and the district sanitary and epidemiological station at the court hearing. These documents must prove that the unauthorized construction complies with construction and sanitary regulations.

Legalization through state authorities: Another way to legalize arbitrary construction is to contact the district administration. To do this, you need to submit an application to which a certain package of documents should be attached:

• original + copy of technical passport;

• photocopy and original of the state act;

• a copy and the original of the declaration from the DABI;

• certified copies of passport and identification code;

• receipts for payment of state duty;

• decision of the city/village council on assigning an address;

• application for registration.

If all the documents are in order, in 10 days you will receive a certificate of ownership and become a full-fledged home owner.
