Each person who is the owner of residential real estate should be well versed in what documentation for this object should be available to him. It definitely includes a technical passport that contains information about the various technical parameters of a particular property. It is required to perform various transactions with the object or to confirm the legality of the planning. Therefore, it is important to understand what data it contains, where it is issued and how it is made out.
The concept of a data sheet
It is a mandatory document for each property owner. The technical passport to the house contains the exact characteristics of the existing facility. It is formed in A3 format. It includes various drawings and diagrams, based on which you can see the exact layout of the living space.
A document is provided by BTI employees. It must be changed when making any legal changes to the property. This requires that the specialists of this bureau independently visit an apartment or house for measurements and calculations.
Legislative regulation
The process of formation and issuance of this document is regulated by several regulatory acts. Standard technical passport of the building is provided when taking into account data from acts:
- PP No. 1301. It describes how the document is drawn up correctly, and also under what conditions it is provided to the owners of residential premises.
- PP No. 576. It contains data on what is the size of the fee for obtaining a copy of the registration certificate, for conducting an assessment or drawing up other documentation based on the rules of technical accounting or inventory.
- Gosstroy Order No. 79. It indicates how long the work on technical accounting and inventory can be carried out in relation to different objects.
- The order of the Ministry of land construction №37. It contains detailed and thoughtful instructions on how to properly register housing stock in the Russian Federation.
Therefore, when issuing a technical passport, it is important to focus on these provisions of the law. If they are violated by BTI employees, then you can file a complaint against them.
A document is presented for the entire period of use of the housing, but every 5 years a reconciliation should be carried out to identify all illegal adjustments made to the premises by the owners. If the passport is not replaced within 5 years, then the owner of the real estate cannot be held liable, since such measures are not listed in the legislation, but at the same time there will be difficulties in making various real estate transactions.
When required
It is usually requested by apartment buyers or people planning a property exchange.
There is no need to receive a document every 5 years if:
- major repairs were not carried out;
- no significant changes have been made since the old document was drawn up;
- during the conversion, the main and supporting parts of the property were not affected.
If you plan to sell an apartment or a house, you will definitely need a technical passport. It has legal force if issued earlier than five years ago. It can be used in court to resolve various disagreements or when disputes arise regarding changes made to real estate.
Registration of technical passports is advisable under the conditions:
- the apartment was redeveloped, which must be legal, so all changes are made to the registry;
- transfer of real estate from a residential facility to non-residential;
- using the information from the passport, you can calculate the inventory cost of housing ;
- information from the data sheet makes it possible to determine in kind the share of each property owner;
- if a cadastral price has not yet been determined for a specific object, then using the data on the inventory value, you can calculate the amount of tax;
- often a document acts as evidence in various legal proceedings;
- without it, you can’t get real estate insurance.
It may be needed in other situations. Most often, a technical passport for a house is required for citizens who plan to purchase an object. When studying it, they can check if there are any illegal adjustments in real estate, whether the set price of the object is expedient, and also study other technical characteristics of the building.
If illegal redevelopment is detected, then it is forbidden to make different transactions with the object. Therefore, the owner will have to first deal with the registration of changes that are registered in the BTI, and then engage in the sale.
What does it look like
It is presented by a document containing data on the technical parameters of the living space. Additionally, there is information about its location and accomplishment. Carrying amount information is included.
The form of the technical passport is strictly unified. It is created in A3 format, and also contains 4 separate pages.
Document Content
Information from the data sheet is significant for each buyer of real estate, so it is subject to careful analysis. Each page contains a lot of information:
- 1 page. On it is a phased plan of a high-rise building or a private house. It contains data on the purpose of the housing, its inventory number, exact address and floor plan, divided into separate rooms. In addition, designations of complex engineering equipment located in an apartment or house are introduced.
- 2 page. Consists of two tables. The first is data on property owners. The second table is represented by explication, so it looks like a graph diagram. It reflects all the geometric dimensions of each room in the housing.
- 3 page. Includes a detailed description of the property. Therefore, there are structural parts of the building, information about connected utilities and other equipment.
- 4 page. It contains information about the book price of real estate at the time of construction of the residential property. Additionally, there is a date of creation of this document and the seal of BTI. An employee of the institution involved in the formation and issuance of a technical passport puts his signature on the last page.

What information can be obtained
This document contains many important information. Real estate buyers are studying the technical passport of an apartment building and a separate apartment for information:
- the exact address of the object;
- the area of the entire apartment and each separate room;
- number of rooms in housing;
- value of real estate based on data obtained during the last inventory;
- data on ongoing repairs;
- if the owners changed the layout, then information on all adjustments that are allowed and correctly legalized is included;
- information about engineering communications;

Differences from cadastral passport
The registration certificate is intended to contain complete technical information about real estate. Often people confuse a technical and cadastral passport, although these documents are completely different. The first includes almost all the data from the cadastral document, and there is also an explication represented by a graphic diagram of the housing.
Obtaining a cadastral passport for any property is now not possible. He was replaced in 2017 by an extract from the USRN. The information in it is fundamentally different from the data contained in the data sheet. It includes information about all operations performed with real estate, about the owners and standard characteristics of an apartment or house.
