[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Suncheon City, Jeollanam-do (Mayor Heo Seok) announced on the 27th that it is implementing the "Finding Ancestral Land" service, which helps locate land registered under deceased ancestors' names.


This service was introduced to assist heirs who are unaware of their ancestors' land ownership status by providing information on the location of the land, thereby aiding in the exercise of property rights.


To apply, applicants must visit the Land Information Division civil service office at Suncheon City Hall with their own ID and documents proving inheritance, such as the ancestor's family register extract, basic certificate, and family relationship certificate.


Application results can be checked immediately, and there is no fee for the service.


This year, the city has checked the land ownership status for 1,749 cases involving 1,827 people, helping 747 individuals find 2,906 parcels of land totaling approximately 3.56 million square meters.



Meanwhile, individuals can easily check their own land ownership status by using the "Find My Land" service on the National Spatial Information Portal.
