## The Presumption of Reliability of Registered Data

Legal due diligence of real estate rests on the norms of the Law on the Public Registry, represented here by Articles 5, 6, 7, 10 and 19. The foundation is Article 5: a presumption of reliability operates towards data registered in the public registry unless they are declared no longer in force, void or nonexistent by the procedure established under Georgian legislation. A registry entry is therefore the starting level of truth, overturned only as the law provides.

Due diligence works with this presumption: retrieve the registered data, check their completeness, and identify cases where an entry has been declared no longer in force or void. A seller's verbal assurance cannot replace the presumption — what matters is what the registry says.

### What status do registry data have?

A presumption of reliability operates towards registered data unless declared no longer in force, void or nonexistent under the statutory procedure.

### What does an extract on immovable property reflect?

The data of the unified databank of the registries of rights, restrictions, liens and debtors that are in force at the moment of preparation.

### What period is allowed for additional documents?

A 30-day period; review is suspended during it, and if the materials are not submitted the application is left unexamined.

### Can a transaction proceed on an item under seizure?

Registration of a public-law restriction precludes the registration of other rights, unless the registration document provides otherwise.
