1 Where a person has been in possession of immovable property not recorded in the land register uninterruptedly and without challenge for 30 years as if it were his or her property, he or she has the right to be registered as the owner.
2 The same right applies on the same conditions to a person in possession of immovable property whose owner is not evident from the land register or who was declared dead or presumed dead at the beginning of the 30-year adverse possession period.
3 However, such registration may be made only by court order on expiry of a publicly notified period for objections, provided no such objections have been raised or those raised have been dismissed.
Les droits de celui qui a été inscrit sans cause légitime au registre foncier comme propriétaire d’un immeuble ne peuvent plus être contestés lorsqu’il a possédé l’immeuble de bonne foi, sans interruption et paisiblement pendant dix ans.
