Intellectual Property Management and Proactive Administration

Leading the Protection of Residents' Property Rights

Ulsan's Ulju-gun is promoting a land category change project targeting farmland used as farmhouse-type residences since before the enforcement of the Farmland Act (1973).


Until now, when the purpose of a building was a farmhouse-type residence but the land category in the cadastral register was farmland, there were difficulties in land sales or gifts.


Cases frequently occurred where it was impossible to issue farmland acquisition qualification certificates due to discrepancies between land use status and cadastral register categories, making it difficult to exercise property rights.


To resolve these inconveniences, Ulju-gun plans to promote the land category change project as a special policy initiative over two years, from this year through next year.


After analyzing aerial photographs from the National Geographic Information Institute and conducting field surveys, the final selection of land eligible for category change applications will be made, and landowners will be asked to apply for category changes to update the cadastral register.



A county official stated, “We will continue to practice proactive administration to resolve inconveniences for Ulju-gun residents through accurate cadastral register management.”
