The rules for foreign buyers are rewritten by amendment law

Adopted on 20 May 2024 and gazetted on 21 May 2024, the amendment redefined "foreigner" to include companies with any foreign shareholding and trustees, limited foreigners to one property (three apartments for citizens of recognising states), required unit titles before application, created the online application with a fee of half the gross minimum wage, set six-month transfer and sixty-business-day tax deadlines, capped same-nationality ownership within a parcel, banned trustee agreements used to exceed limits, set a twenty-million-euro investment threshold, and imposed transitional deadlines on existing contracts.

Before

The 2008 law with the 2018 Council decision in practice: several units per foreigner and trustee arrangements were common.

After

One property per foreigner under the statute, mandatory registration and permission with deadlines, and criminal penalties for evasion.
