Workflow The application may be submitted through the CAIS Portal of GCCA (a registration is required) or on site at a regional GCCO of choice, independent on the property location. When applying through the CAIS Portal, the application has to be signed with a qualified electronic signature. When applying for the service on site at a GCCO, the application is filled in electronically by an employee of the respective GCCO – no provisionally filled application is required in such cases. If the general and specific requirements for the application contents are met, and it is supplemented by the required documentation, the request is registered in the records-keeping system. The Head of the GCCO, or another expert employee authorized by the Head of the GCCO, resolves the application for service implementation and submits it to the officer in charge of conducting the service. In cases of flaws in the application, the administrative body notifies in written the applicant, with further instructions on resolving the deficiencies in a 14-day period (Art. 19, Para 2 of Ordinance No RD-02-20-4/October 11, 2016 for Provision of services from the cadastral map and the cadastral registers). After preparing the requested graphic copy of the cadastral map or parts of it, is delivered to user in the manner requested. When submitting an application that provides new data and documents required to eliminate any deficiencies identified, no fees are charged again. Exceptions are cases in which incorrectly calculated state fees indicated as a deficiency and therefore a relevant surcharge is due by the applicant.
