According to the amendments to the Law on Residential Properties, which come into force on January 5, 2026, the Register of Apartment Owners’ Associations has been established, and its administrator is the State Construction Control Bureau of Latvia. The Register of Apartment Owners’ Associations is available in the Construction Information System under the section “Registers” – “Register of Apartment Owners’ Associations”.

The Register of Apartment Owners’ Associations is necessary to address existing problems in the field of renovation of multi-apartment residential buildings, to strengthen the capacity of apartment owners’ associations as full-fledged legal entities to participate in civil legal transactions, including the ability to receive loans issued by credit institutions, as well as to reduce the bureaucratic burden on residents.

The Register of Apartment Owners’ Associations is an informational register, and its purpose is to ensure publicly accessible and reliable information about all apartment owners’ associations in Latvia.

The following information about an apartment owners’ association is included in the register:

• identifier;
• name;
• manager of the residential building:
  • the manager’s name, registration number, legal address, and official electronic address, if the manager is a legal entity;
  • the manager’s first name, last name, personal identification number, and email address, if the manager is a natural person;
• the email address of the contact person designated by the apartment owners’ association or another communication channel, if such has been specified by the association.

The Register of Apartment Owners’ Associations includes information on every residential building that has been divided into apartment properties, therefore, apartment owners do not need to take any additional actions.

For more information, see the section “Apartment Owners’ Associations” on the website of the State Construction Control Bureau of Latvia.

Additional information about apartment owners’ associations can be found in the article “The apartment owners’ association will be able to receive loans for the renovation of residential buildings.”
