Copy of hard land title

Post by daeum_tnaot »

Hello all,

Wonder if anyone knows the process for this. A family member lost their hard title and needs to get a copy made. She went to the district land office and IIRC they told her that it's a long process where they have to post the request for duplicate title at the commune office to see if that land is the subject of any dispute. Sounded long and difficult. I can't remember the price they told her but she thought it would be expensive.

Does anyone know the process for getting this?

TIA!

It's more complicated than that.

Borrow money with land title as collateral.

Report land title lost.

Obtain a new one. Rinse & repeat.

As in our case, they will not hand over a Hard Title until they see proof that the Land Tax has been paid first.

To pay the Land Tax, the Tax Department requires the Hard Title so they can register the property.

Which comes first, the chicken or the egg.

Right, good point, I forgot about that. They may need to make sure the banks or any other lenders don't claim to have the original title.

Is this rural land or in the city? I've never heard of collecting tax in rural areas.

2. What property is taxed in Cambodia?
Property tax in Cambodia is officially known as the Tax on Immovable Properties (TOIP). Immovable properties include: land, houses, infrastructure, buildings, other construction, etc. TOIP imposes an annual tax rate of 0.1% on immovable properties that value over $25,000 (KHR 100 million).

Properties under this value, as well as state-owned lands, agricultural land and industrial land, are exempt from paying Cambodia’s property tax. The value of all property built on land is identified by its market price, which is evaluated and then established by the Prakas of the Minster of Economy and Finance.
3. When must property taxes be paid in Cambodia?
Property taxes must be paid annually, no later than the 30th of September.


9. What is the tax for unused land?
Unused land includes non-constructed land and vacant constructed land determined by the Unused Land Appraisal Committee (ULAC). The owner of the unused land is taxed at a 2% rate on the tax base, and is not categorised under the scope of Tax on Immovable Properties.

Nice topic.

Let's suppose some farmland was purchased 10 years ago for 25K Also assume it got hard titled 5 years ago. No 0.1% annual tax ever paid.

The tax man never comes nor sends an annual bill nor has assessed FMV.

How fxxked will I be when I try to sell...at a bigger amount than 25K? ie...What retro tax penalty could assessed for arrears on a 25K property never reassessed until I sell. How, pray tell will I be gouged?

What shpuld I do now to fix? Or, do notbing?

Thx so much for insights.
