Home / RLA / Article 18. Subjects of the right of subsurface use Code on Subsurface and Subsurface Use Republic of Kazakhstan

1. Natural and legal persons may be subjects of the right of subsurface use, unless otherwise provided by this Code.

2. Several persons may simultaneously be holders of the right of subsurface use. In this case, ownership of the right of subsurface use is common. Common ownership of the right of subsurface use arises in the case of granting the right of subsurface use to two or more persons simultaneously or as a result of the transfer of a share in the right of subsurface use from one person to another person.

Common ownership of the right of subsurface use by two or more persons is allowed only with the determination of the share of each of these persons in such a right.

The norms of the civil legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan governing the relations of common shared ownership apply to the common ownership of the right of subsurface use.

In the cases provided for by this Code, the holder of the right of subsurface use may be only one person.

3. Unless otherwise provided by this Code, the right of subsurface use (a share in the right of subsurface use) may be transferred from one person to another on the grounds provided for by the civil legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
