How to find my parcel on the Cyprus cadastral map
A step-by-step guide: searching by district and municipality with a parcel or registration number, what SBPI and Sheet/Plan mean, what to do when several results appear, and how to locate an apartment.
The AXIA map lets you locate a parcel on the Cyprus cadastral map free of charge, with no account and no fees. All you need are the details shown on the title deed: the district, the municipality or community, and either the parcel number or the registration number.
The information comes from the public online services of the Department of Lands and Surveys. The map reproduces it as published — it is a lookup tool, not an official certificate.
Searching by parcel number
In the “Parcel search” card, select the district first and then the municipality or community. Type the parcel number as it appears on the title deed and press “Search”.
If you know the parish — the quarter of the municipality where the property lies — you can fill it in optionally. It does not restrict the search, but it helps you pick the right result when more than one is returned.
When there is a single match, the map flies to the parcel and outlines it in red.
Searching by registration number — and locating an apartment
If your title deed quotes a registration number (for example 0/12345), switch to “Registration” mode and fill in the block and the number. In most villages and many areas the block is 0.
Registration search is also how you locate an apartment or any other unit in a building: the unit's registration leads to the parcel on which the building stands. The map shows the parcel and, in the details panel, a table of the units registered on it — so you can find yours along with its basic details.
What SBPI and Sheet/Plan mean
The SBPI is the unique number the Land Registry's systems use to identify each parcel. It does not appear on title deeds, but it shows up in the search results and in the KML files the Department issues — and it is useful precisely because it never repeats.
The Sheet/Plan reference (for example 21/56) identifies the cadastral plan on which the parcel is drawn. It comes from the traditional division of the survey mapping into sheets and plans and still accompanies every parcel: the combination of Sheet/Plan and parcel number — together with the block, where one exists — is what pinpoints a property within a municipality or community.
When more than one result appears
The same parcel number can exist on different sheets/plans or in different parishes of the same municipality, so a search often returns several records. The map never picks one automatically: it lists every match with its parcel number, registration, SBPI and, where possible, the parish.
Compare the details against the title deed — the registration (block/number) usually settles it immediately. If you filled in a parish, the results located in it are listed first.
Identifying a parcel directly on the map
If you know where the property is but not its details, zoom into the area. From zoom level 15 upwards — once parcel boundaries become visible — tap the parcel and the map will identify it and show its details.
You can also search for an address or place name: the map flies there and you tap the parcel yourself. Finally, if you have a KML or KMZ file from the Land Registry, you can upload it — it is read locally, inside your browser, and the parcel appears on the map.
What you see once the parcel is found
Identifying a parcel opens its details card: cadastral details, the planning zone with its published parameters, the General Valuation figures as published by the Land Registry for taxation purposes, the parcel's characteristics, and downloads — KML, information documents and the official cadastral plan.
