Building legalisation

The legalisation procedure enables illegally constructed or reconstructed buildings that meet the conditions prescribed by law to obtain legal status.
The basic condition for legalisation is that the building was constructed or reconstructed by 21 June 2011 and that it is visible on the official orthophoto image from 2011, or that its existence by that date can be proven in another way prescribed by the Act.
ING-VICTUS prepares as-built surveys and, where necessary, statements on the mechanical resistance and stability of the building, with professional support throughout the entire legalisation procedure.

What the legalisation service includes

Verification of the possibility of legalisation

We review the existing documentation and basic data on the building and verify whether it meets the conditions for initiating the legalisation procedure.

Site inspection and measurement

We survey the building and take the necessary measurements in order to record its actual as-built state.

Preparation of the as-built survey

On the basis of the site measurement, we prepare an as-built survey with the required technical descriptions, area calculations, drawings and photographic documentation of the building.

Statement on mechanical resistance and stability

Where required, we prepare a statement by a licensed civil engineer on compliance with the essential requirement of mechanical resistance and stability of the building.

Geodetic documentation

If the building is not recorded on the cadastral map, our associate, a licensed geodesist, prepares a geodetic as-built survey with data in GML format.

Submitting the application via eDozvola

Upon completion of the preparation and collection of the required documentation, we provide support in submitting the application for the decision on the as-built state via the eDozvola system.

  • What is needed for building legalisation?
    For the procedure it is necessary to prepare the prescribed technical and other documentation, which depends on the condition of the building and whether it is recorded in the cadastre. ING-VICTUS prepares the as-built survey and, where required, the statement on mechanical resistance and stability, while the geodetic documentation is prepared by a licensed geodesist where required.
  • How much does building legalisation cost?
    The price of the service depends on the type and size of the building, its existing state, the available documentation and the scope of documentation required for the specific procedure. After reviewing the basic data on the building, we can define the price of the service.
  • In which area do you provide legalisation services?
    We provide legalisation services primarily in the area of Belišće, Valpovo, Osijek and Osijek-Baranja County, and depending on the type and complexity of the building, elsewhere in Croatia.
