/ The property of foreigners: challenges
The questionnaire on data collection by national land registries examines how foreign individuals are identified in real estate transactions, focusing on the type and amount of personal data required. It also addresses the use of a uniform person identification number and whether such identifiers are consistently applied across State information systems. The responses highlight the diversity of approaches among European jurisdictions and contribute to a better understanding of practices in land registration.
