1. What is the Cadastre?

The cadastre is an administrative document that records and identifies the land properties (buildings, houses, plots of land, etc.) of a municipality in order to calculate the local taxes owed by the property owner.

The primary purpose of this document is fiscal, not legal — the cadastre does not serve as proof of ownership.

2. What information can be found in the Cadastre section?

On the left-hand side, the following information related to the cadastral reference is available:

• Cadastral Section Identifier:
  The cadastral map of a municipality is divided into several cadastral sections to make it easier to read. Each section is represented by a letter, sometimes followed by a number.

• Plot Number:
  Each section is made up of cadastral plots, which are portions of land belonging to the same owner. They are identified by a number.

• Name of the Municipality, District, and Postal Code

• Cadastral capacity: Total surface area of the parcel(s) in m²

On the right-hand side, you will find a dynamic cadastral map. By default, the blue-highlighted parcel corresponds to the address of the property entered. You can also click on any surrounding parcels to view their data.

3. How to replace one plot with another?

It is possible to select a different cadastral plot if the one suggested by the tool is not the correct one.

• Step 1:
  Click on the map on the correct plot, then check the box in the black box that appears.

• Step 2:
  The information related to the selected plot will then be displayed in the panel on the left.
  The total Cadastral capacity is then shown above the plots.
  Click on the “Unselect” option of the first plot to exclude it from the Cadastre section.
