October 3, 2012

Vladimir Putin signed Federal Law On Amendments to the Basic Legislative Principles of the Russian Federation on Notaries and Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation.

The Federal Law is aimed at defending citizens’ property rights, improving the quality of notary services, enhancing the transparency of notary activities, and creating a reliable and modern reporting system for notarial actions.

The law contemplates the creation and sets the mode of operation of a Unified Notary Information System that will allow for the formation of a comprehensive database of all registered notarised documents.

The law will promote the creation of a common information space between the notaries, the Federal Tax Service, the Federal Bailiff Service, the Federal Registration Service, and other federal executive authorities.
