The Danish Cadastre Office

The Danish Cadastre is the basis for all land registration in Denmark. 

Historical information about Denmark’s cadastre, including early property maps, cadastral protocols and field survey measurements, can be found in the cadastral archives.

The cadastral map is a key component of the national cadastre. It illustrates all property boundaries and ownership data from across Denmark. It also provides information about protected forests, coastal erostion areas and cliff protection.

The Danish Geodata Agency is the competent authority for the profession of chartered land surveyors in Denmark, administering the rules regulating the profession and overseeing the practising chartered surveyors’ adherence to these rules.

The cadastral register is a database of property information that encompasses all of Denmark.
