Greece’s Cadastre nears completion with 99% coverage

According to the latest data announced by the agency, 99% of Greek territory now has published cadastral data and a National Cadastre Code (KAEK), a development that places the project in its final implementation stage.

This development is considered particularly significant for the completion of a project that for decades remained unfinished and was associated with long-standing inefficiencies in public administration, ranging from property transfers to spatial planning pending issues and legal disputes over ownership.

According to the Hellenic Cadastre, reaching this percentage effectively marks the transition of the project into its final completion phase. Since 2019, the project has accelerated through a combination of legislative interventions, digitisation of services, and stricter monitoring of cadastral surveying contracts.

A central role in the process is played by the posting phase, during which citizens can, for the first time, view in a consolidated manner all data relating to their property, verify its accuracy, and submit correction requests where necessary.

Access is now carried out digitally through the Hellenic Cadastre platform and in particular via the digital map portal maps.ktimatologio.gr, where property owners can search for their properties and view published data in a unified spatial information environment covering the entire country.

The 99% completion rate of the posting phase even exceeds the target set under the Recovery and Resilience Facility, something which the Cadastre’s administration presents as evidence of the project’s acceleration in recent years.

Despite this significant progress, several pending issues remain before the final completion of the cadastral project. In the coming period, emphasis will be placed on the completion of ongoing contracts, the management of remaining cadastral discrepancies, and the finalisation of special cadastral registries.

At the same time, the full transition to a fully operational digital Cadastre is advancing, aiming to digitise procedures that until recently required physical presence and were burdened by significant bureaucracy.

The official plan foresees that the full cadastral mapping of the country will be completed by the end of 2026, in line with commitments under the Competitiveness Programme and the broader national strategy for the digital transformation of the state.
