Opening of Multi-Use Building Blueprints... Issuance and Viewing Possible Even Without Ownership

[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Jiwon] Starting from the 12th of next month, it will be possible to view architectural drawing information of multi-use buildings, excluding residential purposes, even if you are not the owner.

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced on the 13th that it had promulgated the "Regulations on the Entry and Management of Building Registers," which include this content on the 12th. The new regulation will take effect from the 12th of next month.

Currently, without the consent of the building owner, issuance and viewing are only possible for the building register and site plan (excluding floor plans). However, from now on, for multi-use buildings, floor plans can also be issued and viewed upon request without the owner's consent for the safety of users, convenience of use, and other public interest purposes.

Issuance of drawings is also permitted when requested by appraisal corporations commissioned for property appraisal and when necessary to ensure the safety of citizens or residents for disaster prevention and during disaster occurrences.

When the contents of the building register do not match the status of the building according to investigations and inspections under the Building Act and related laws, local governments are required to compulsorily update the building register.

Um Jeonghee, Director of Building Policy at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, said, "With this revision, administrative convenience in building management will improve, and related data industries utilizing building information, such as proptech, are expected to be revitalized."
