In the Tula region approved regulations on the provision of plots free of charge

In the Tula region approved a new administrative regulation of registration of citizens for obtaining land for free. The document concerns large families permanently residing in the region for at least five years, MK in Tula found out after reviewing its text.

No more than seven working days are given for consideration of the application and necessary documents.

More specifically, the thematic order of the Ministry of Social Protection of the Tula region was issued on November 9, 2026. The new rules define the procedure for the provision of public services and replace the previously valid regulations approved in December 2022. The document enters into force from the date of official publication.

The service can be used by citizens of Russia who have been living in the Tula region for at least five years and raising three or more minor children. At the same time, adult children are also included in the family if they continue their education in educational institutions or undergo conscription military service.

It is important that the age of such children should not exceed 23 years, and they must live with their parents in the region.

Accept applications and provide the service will be the Department of social protection of the population of the Tula region. However, you can apply for it directly to the institution or through the MFC. The result is also allowed to be obtained electronically by e-mail, ordinary letter or in person.

Based on the results of consideration of the citizen will be registered or make a decision on refusal. Information about the application will be entered in the register of large citizens in chronological order. If there is a technical possibility, it will be possible to monitor the course of consideration through a personal account on the portal "State Services".

The procedure itself is free: state duty and other payments for it will not be charged. In case of personal appeal, as the text of the appendix to the order of the relevant ministry states, you will have to wait no more than 15 minutes to receive or issue the result.

Earlier, MK in Tula told about a dispute between a large family from the regional center and the city administration over a plot for individual housing construction.

In October 2026, it became known that a resident of Tula was able to obtain the right to free land through the court. The woman prepared a scheme for a plot of 1,285 square meters and asked the property and land relations committee to agree on its granting to the property. But she was refused.

The administration referred to archival materials, according to which the territory belonged to the vegetable gardens of workers and employees of the former SEC “Victory”, and said that it has no right to dispose of this land.

Tulachka, however, went to court and won the case. The administration tried to challenge the decision, but the regional court upheld it.

Interestingly, the appeals panel took into account that the family was already registered to receive free land, and the city authorities were unable to provide sufficient evidence of the legality of the refusal.
