Seongbuk-gu, One-Stop Service to Solve Surveying, Cadastral, and Registration at Once

Land Division Processing: Visits Reduced from 3 to 1, Period Shortened from 17 Days to 8 Days

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Seongbuk-gu will implement the ‘ONE-PASS Cadastral Civil Service’ from February this year, allowing residents to resolve surveying, cadastral, and registration processes all at once with a single visit.

Previously, when dividing land for sale or construction, residents had to visit the district office and the Korea Land and Geospatial Informatix Corporation (KLGIC) at least three times (requesting cadastral surveying, receiving survey results, applying for land transfer), causing inconvenience and requiring a minimum processing period of 17 days.

In response, the district office collaborated with KLGIC to provide explanations in advance about division restriction laws and permit procedures during the visit for cadastral surveying requests, and simultaneously accept land transfer applications, enabling all processes to be completed in one visit.

Additionally, to shorten the civil service processing period, KLGIC will attend the site during cadastral surveying to conduct on-site inspections of division survey results and provide easy-to-understand explanations of specialized fields such as site analysis and usage planning.

Furthermore, survey results will be delivered via non-face-to-face methods such as mobile (email, fax, mail), and cadastral organization and registration requests will be executed simultaneously with the results inspection. This innovation reduces the processing period from the previous 17 days to 8 days, and the entire process from surveying to cadastral and registration organization will be guided via text messages, allowing real-time tracking of the processing status.

A Seongbuk-gu official stated, “The promotion of the ONE-PASS cadastral civil service will simplify the previously complex and time-consuming procedures from surveying to registration, and will greatly contribute to preventing the spread of infectious diseases by supporting social distancing measures during COVID-19.”
