Those affected by georeferencing without formal proceedings: 15 days to file an appeal

The Resolution of 11 December 2025 establishes that when georeferencing is registered without formal proceedings under Article 201.3 of the Mortgage Law, affected parties have the right to file an appeal within 15 calendar days of notification. This mechanism allows for the correction of errors in surface area registration, particularly when there is a reduction of more than 10% compared to the previous area. The appeal must be submitted to the Directorate General of Legal Certainty and Public Faith.

In 2 key points

  1. A 15-calendar-day deadline to file an appeal before the Directorate General of Legal Certainty and Public Faith (art. 201.3)
  2. Georeferencing is considered defective if it is registered without formal proceedings and the surface area decreases by more than 10% (art. 201.3)

How it affects those involved

Owners and third parties affected by georeferencing without formal proceedings may file an appeal within 15 calendar days to correct surface area errors. Land registry administrations must notify the registration with precision. Property advisors should inform their clients about the deadline and the right to appeal. Affected parties who fail to act within the timeframe lose the ability to challenge the registration.
