You can get this service from Lantmäteriet
When you start a transaction or seek information about us, Lantmäteriet provides general information regarding your questions. The information we can provide is for example how to apply for a title deed, contractual easement, subdivision, cadastral measure or which e-services and application forms should be used. It can also be about which documents you need to send with your application. You can also order extracts from our registers.
What we cannot do
It is not part of Lantmäteriets mission to give advice on, for example, how a property division or inheritance should be done, tax planning or give advice on how regulations or older decisions can be interpreted.
If you need help to investigate your questions, get suggestions how to act or help with interpreting or creating legal documents, we refer you to the private market by external advisers or agents.

On these pages you will find:
- processing time for enrollment matters
- application for legal registration

- property regulation

Protected identity
Since an e-mail is considered a public document, you need to call us regarding your matter.
Lantmäteriet can help with conveying letters to people who own a property when the person has protected personal information, and you do not know the person's social security number.
If you have protected personal data, you must not register the application in the recruitment system. Instead, contact the recruiting manager to submit your application in another way. You will find the contact details in the advertisement.
I want to know more about a property
In our e-service Who owns the property, you who are a private person and have valid e-identification can get information about who owns a property. The e-service has a limit of five searches per user and 24 hours.
If you own a property, you can log in to our e-service My property and take part of the information from the property register.
In our order form, you can easily order extracts from the property register:
In the e-service My property you can see if there are any easements on the property. In the service you will also find detailed information about your own property such as:
- Legal speed and mortgages
- Real estate law measures with accompanying files
Read more about easement. For further questions regarding easements, you are welcome to contact our Customer Center.
You can order an extract from the property register free of charge. The register extract shows, among other things, who the legal owner of the property is, mortgages and tax information as well as information about community facilities and communities that are connected to the property.
Then you should turn to Skatteverket. Via Skatteverket, you can get information about decided assessment values. Visit the service "apply for tax value" on the Skatteverkets website (new window, in Swedish).
Lantmäteriet can help with conveying letters to people who own a property when the person has protected personal information, and you do not know the person's social security number.

Examples of enrollment matters:

I want to change my land (property)
If you want to make changes that affect the property's boundaries, you need to apply for a surveying service. Information on how to proceed can be found on the page Change, merge and share a property.
An application for a surveying service can be submitted in two ways. Either via our e-service or by post.
This happens when you submit an application to us - the Surveying Service step by step.
You can also follow ongoing surveying services in our e-service for surveying services. This applies to both cases you yourself have applied for and cases you are otherwise affected by. In the service, you also see if your case has been assigned to an administrator.
How long a case takes varies. When an administrator starts working on your case, we get in touch. Only then can you get more information about time, cost and who should pay.
See our estimated processing time for administrative matters.
Cost examples and more information about costs
We charge for all work on your case from the time the application is received, regardless of whether it ends with:
- what you are applying for can be implemented
- what you are applying for cannot be implemented
- you withdraw the application
Then you should turn to the municipality where you want to build. It is the building committee or equivalent committee that handles matters concerning building permits, land permits, demolition permits, prior notice and notification.
Maps
In our e-service My map, you can save or print a pdf on any scale over the area you want for use as a basis for, for example, a building permit application.
Then My Map, which is our map service, fits. In the service you can, among other things:
- Find places, properties and addresses
- Show property boundaries
