Application for Recognition of a Right over Land Already Described in the Registry (Procedimento Especial de Justificação BUPi – Prédio Descrito)

Blank application under the BUPi procedure for anyone wishing to establish their right over a rural or mixed-use plot that already has a Land Registry description.

What it is for

Regularising ownership of land that is already described but without your right registered
Proceeding with the special justification procedure linked to BUPi

Example (fictitious). Decades ago, Titus Gorila bought a vineyard by private agreement; it already has a description in the registry, but in the name of a former owner.

What it is

This is the application for the special BUPi justification procedure, in the version for rural or mixed-use properties already described in the Land Registry (registo predial). It is intended for the specific situation set out in the form. It is not the same as the application for land with no registration at all, and it does not, on its own, prove the right claimed.

What you receive

You receive the official blank PDF form, with an explanation of what it is for. The Titus assistant answers your questions about filling it in. You can combine it with other documents in the same request, with a single payment. We do not ask for any password for forms.

Things to note

You receive a blank form; the applicant must complete the details and sign it. Before choosing this version, please check with the registry whether your property is in fact described. We do not submit the application or guarantee its approval.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know whether my land is "described"?

You can check on a Land Registry certificate or by consulting the registry. If a description exists, use this version; if not, use the other one.

Does my land need to be mapped in BUPi already?

The procedure is linked to BUPi, but the exact steps depend on the case. Please check with the office and use the Titus assistant to clarify the terms used on the form.
