When you need information about a property, you should find out what the property identifier is before contacting the National Land Survey.
The property identifier is a series of four numbers, such as 740-555-2-0. The property identifier is shown on extracts concerning the property in question, such as a real estate tax demand or certificate of title.
When you need information about a property
- You can check the information about your property, unseparated parcel or leasehold in the e-service. The service is available in Finnish and Swedish (individual customers, in Finnish or in Swedish and organisational customers, in Finnish or in Swedish).
- You can also get the basic information of any property (property identifier, area, date of registration) and buy extracts and certificates for properties in the e-service.
- If you need to know the owner of a property, read the instructions on the Who owns this property unit? page.
How to find out the property identifier
- In the Search field, type the place name, address or property identifier.
Please note! The position shown on the map for the address is not necessarily on the right property because some properties have been registered without address information. - You can use the characters + and - to zoom in and out on the map. The property identifiers become visible when you have zoomed in close enough. Loading property identifiers on the map can take a while.
Please note! Only property identifiers are shown on the map. If you need the unseparated parcel identifier or the establishment identifier of a leasehold, you can check these in your own property information in the NLS e-service.
