If you own an apartment, a house or land in Georgia and need to prove it to someone outside the country, this is the document they will want. It is the property equivalent of a company extract: an official statement from the registry confirming what is on record.

What the extract shows

The extract is drawn from Georgia’s public registry and reflects the officially recorded position for a specific property. It typically includes:

• The owner — the registered holder of the title, with identification details.
• The property — its cadastral code, address, area and type.
• Encumbrances — mortgages, liens, seizures or other rights registered against it.
• Registration data — when and on what basis the ownership was recorded.

That encumbrance section is worth noting: the extract does not only prove that you own something, it also shows whether anything is registered against it. Foreign institutions often care about both.

When you need it

• Proof of assets or means — for a foreign bank, a residence or visa application, or a mortgage assessment.
• Inheritance and estate matters — establishing what the estate includes.
• Court and family proceedings — including divorce and asset declarations.
• Selling or refinancing — where a counterparty wants confirmation of clean title.

Making it usable abroad

The extract is issued in Georgian. For another country you will almost always need a certified translation into the target language and an apostille, which authenticates the document for Hague Convention countries (legalisation is used instead for non-Convention destinations). Institutions also tend to want a recent extract — often issued within the last few months — since ownership and encumbrances can change.

Getting it without being in Georgia

You do not need to travel. Under a power of attorney we obtain a fresh extract, arrange the certified translation and the apostille, and send you the finished document — the usual route for owners who bought in Georgia and now live elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you get the extract if I am abroad?

Yes. Under a power of attorney we obtain it, arrange a certified translation and the apostille on your behalf, and send you the finished document — no need to travel to Georgia.

Does it show mortgages or other claims?

Yes — registered encumbrances such as mortgages, liens or seizures appear on the extract alongside the ownership details, which is often exactly what the requesting institution wants to see.

How recent does it need to be?

Most banks and foreign authorities want an extract issued recently — commonly within the last few months — because the registered position can change. We obtain a fresh one rather than relying on an older copy.
