Posts on Bluesky saying Catastro is down. Checked 8 November 2026, 11:32 PM PKT.

Quiet right now. Nobody on Bluesky is saying Catastro is down.

Is Catastro down right now?

A home sale or a tax letter sends most people here, reference number in hand. They check the Catastro status when the first lookup fails. Catastro down reports rise when the mapping viewer stalls, since nearly every task on the sede leans on it.

The sede splits into open and signed areas. Location, surface and use data open to anyone, while ownership details wait behind a certificate or Cl@ve sign-in.

Is Catastro down for me or everyone?

Run the open lookup first, since it needs no sign-in at all. If open data loads but the signed area rejects you, your certificate or browser is the problem. If the search answers while the map stays blank, the viewer alone is down. That order settles is Catastro down for me in minutes.

Looking up a property by its reference

Every property carries a cadastral reference of twenty characters, printed on tax bills and deeds. The search takes it and returns the record: description, surface, use and the building’s age on file. One wrong character returns a flat not-found, with no hint about which character failed.

The address route reaches the same record through province, town, street and number. Rural plots hide behind their municipality, polygon and parcel numbers instead. Both routes land on the same record page.

The mapping viewer and its layers

The viewer draws each plot’s boundary over aerial photos, with layers for boundaries, buildings and street names. Tiles load as you zoom, so a fast pan leaves grey squares behind. The viewer also measures distances and prints the visible map.

Certificates and protected data

The descriptive and graphic certificate is the document banks and notaries ask for, signed with a verification code. A certificate that refuses to build looks like a Catastro outage. The usual block is the sign-in level: ownership data opens only behind a certificate or a Cl@ve sign-in at the stronger level. The open record page offers location data only.

Filing a correction from the sede

Wrong surface, wrong boundary or a missing building all go through the procedures area of the sede. The correction filing takes your details, the record reference and your documents in one form. The sede returns a registry receipt, and the case state shows in your filings list.

Common Catastro Problems and Fixes

Most Catastro faults sit in the typed reference, the viewer tiles or the sign-in level. Check them in that order before filing anything.

Retype the reference in blocks

Split the twenty characters into the blocks printed on your bill and compare block by block. The letter O and the zero swap places in most failed searches.

Take the address route when the reference fails

Province, town, street and number find the same record without the reference. For rural land, the town plus polygon and parcel numbers do the job.

Reload the viewer at a closer zoom

Tiles draw only once you zoom close enough to a plot. A grey map at country zoom is the viewer waiting, not failing. Zoom to street level, pause, and let the layers settle.

Raise your sign-in for protected data

Open data needs no login, but ownership details demand a certificate or Cl@ve. The rejection message names the level required. Signing in again at that level opens the same record fully.

Save the certificate from its result screen

The sede builds the signed certificate inside your session and offers it once. Closing the tab first loses the file link. Save the PDF before opening anything else.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my reference find no property?

One character is almost always wrong, since the search forgives nothing. Compare against the tax bill or the deed block by block. The address search finds the record and shows its true reference.

How do I find a plot without its reference?

Search by address for homes, or by town, polygon and parcel for rural land. The mapping viewer also lets you click a plot directly. Every route lands on the same record page.

What appears on a record before I sign in?

Location, surface, use, the map and the building’s age on file are open to everyone. Ownership data stays behind a certificate or Cl@ve sign-in.

Can I download a certificate for a bank or a notary?

Yes, the record page builds the descriptive and graphic certificate as a signed PDF. It carries a verification code the bank can check. The signed area must be open when you request it.

Does the register value match the market price?

No, the figure on the record is an administrative value, not a sale price. The site shows it for tax and register purposes. Market prices move on a different track entirely.

Where do I report an error in my property data?

The procedures area of the sede holds the correction filing. It takes the record reference, your description of the error and your documents. A registry receipt confirms the filing at the end.
