New owners, after all the worries, do not always remember that a mandatory process awaits them - re-registration (re-registration) of a personal account when the owner changes.
Not everyone understands the meaning of a personal account. Most often it is presented as calculated. But, at its core, according to its purpose, a personal account is a means of accumulating information. It contains information about the apartment, owners, and records the history of use of electricity, water, gas, garbage disposal and other services.
Opening and recording information is the responsibility of the organization providing business services. Previously, the personal account was presented in paper form, using cards on which the management company recorded all expenses.
Modern accounting is carried out using computer programs. When changing owners, housing and communal services enterprises must re-register their personal account based on the application of the new owner. He, for his part, must follow the procedure specified by law.
Algorithm of actions
From the point of view of the law, the next owner receives the opportunity to rewrite the personal account after completing documentation of ownership (information from the Unified State Register of Real Estate). The right of ownership automatically imposes obligations on the owner of the property and responsibility for paying for the work of utilities. Therefore, do not hesitate, you need to follow these steps:

Transferring utility bills?
New owners need to know that when purchasing an apartment, they, along with the responsibility for paying utilities, also assume all debts remaining from the previous owner.
Even before the procedure for buying and selling a home, you need to obtain complete information about the absence of debt from the previous owner (certificate from the HOA, management company).
In addition, it is necessary to check the data of the metering devices, which are indicated in the transfer deed for the apartment. They must correspond to the information from the certificate of the HOA, the Criminal Code. And the certificate itself should be as late as possible.
If the new owner was not vigilant and became the owner of a receipt for a large debt for housing and communal services, then he will be obliged to pay it in accordance with the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Otherwise, he will be subject to various penalties. Of course, this situation is unfair. The situation can only be corrected in court, after the debt has been repaid. A claim is being filed for a refund.
Rules for the supply and use of gas
Even when planning your move, you can familiarize yourself with government regulations regulating the rules for the supply and use of gas.
There are two of them:
- Resolution No. 410 of May 14, 2013 approves the rules of use.
- Resolution No. 549 of July 21, 2008 contains delivery rules.
According to these documents, only the owner of the premises can be the customer for gas supply services. Accordingly, it is illegal to use it on behalf of the previous owner.
When submitting an application, the deadlines for consideration and execution should be taken into account. On average, they are 10 working days. Therefore, if you want to take advantage of the benefits immediately after moving, you should not delay
The owner or customer, according to legislative terminology, can be not only an individual. It can be a management organization, a housing cooperative, a homeowners association, or an individual entrepreneur.

List of documents for re-registration
You can see what documents are needed to renew a gas contract on the website of the regional supplier.
The standard list includes:
- A clear copy of your passport.
- Proof of ownership. This may be a certificate of state registration or a social tenancy agreement.
- Documented information about the area of the gasified room. Usually they are contained in the technical passport, in the house design.
- Information about residents displayed in a certificate from the passport office, an extract from the house register or a certificate from the municipal administration.
- Technical passports of all units of gas equipment. The flow meter passport must be accompanied by information about the last verification and sealing date.
- A copy of the act of fixing property boundaries when owning a private house.
If one of the documents is missing, gas company employees do not have the right to accept the application or give it a go. Therefore, it is not worth wasting time trying to re-issue a contract with an incomplete package of documents.
According to the rules, during the equipment inspection, the technician must provide instructions to the new home owner. It includes safety rules and an algorithm for action in emergency situations. Therefore, when accepting documents, sometimes they pay attention to the presence of the corresponding signature in the act
Sometimes an old contract concluded with the previous owner is required for re-registration. If it is not possible to find it, you must submit a contract for the maintenance of in-house equipment. But this rule applies only to residents of apartment buildings.
Owners of private households, if they lose an old document, are advised to restore it by requesting a request to the gas service archive.

Procedure for re-registration of documents
The list of documents for re-registration of gas supply to the new owner may vary. It depends on the form of ownership. But the algorithm of actions is the same for everyone; it consists of three main stages.
Stage #1 - submitting an application
An application or offer is submitted by the new owner of the residential premises to the gas service office that oversees the area of residence. To simplify the process, a special form has been developed.
It contains:
- lines for entering information about the applicant;
- the wording of the request;
- fields for displaying information about the type of consumption, room area, number of residents, benefits, characteristics of gas equipment.
If we are talking about a private house, the owner will have to additionally indicate the location of connection to the central highway, as well as the details of the document defining the boundaries of the property.
When submitting an application, gas meter information may be required. Therefore, even at the stage of purchasing a home, it is recommended to request a technical passport of the product from the previous owner
The application form can be obtained without a personal visit to the gas service. All you have to do is call the customer service department to receive the document by email or use the download link provided. When you make the first call, you should also ask questions about documents and deadlines.
Stage #2 - equipment check
Having received a complete set of documents from the applicant, the gas company employee will set a date for inspecting the equipment.
The stove, the water heating column, the heating boiler, the fuel supply shut-off valve, the flow meter, all connections and locking devices are subject to mandatory control.
During the visit, a gas service representative checks not only the operability of equipment and devices, but also the correct location of the equipment relative to the walls, floor, sink, radiators
Checking is carried out on a paid basis. The total amount depends on the number of units of gas equipment. The new owner of the premises must pay for the work. If the technician identifies a discrepancy between the condition of the equipment or gas pipeline elements and the safety requirements, the deficiencies will have to be corrected. Without this, renewing the contract is impossible.
To avoid problems with gas equipment, it is recommended to promptly conclude a service agreement with the gas company. How to do this - read on.
Stage #3 - conclusion of a new contract
At the end of the inspection, an employee of the gas company will draw up a report on the completion of the work. It will become the basis for renegotiating the agreement. It is important that the form of the contract reflects the methods of accounting and payment for fuel.
The minimum validity period of the contract with the gas service is 3 years. On average, it is 5-10 years. Practice shows that new tenants are in no hurry to renew the contract and pay according to receipts in the name of the previous owner. In this case, you need to know that upon expiration of the validity period, a fine will be imposed for using gas without a contract: from 1 thousand to 2 thousand for an individual, from 40 to 100 thousand for a legal entity
Representatives of the subscriber department must correctly record the current option and select the relevant form based on the information provided by the checking specialist.
Different types of contracts are provided for in settlements according to:
- flow meter data;
- regional and seasonal standards;
- metering devices with a smart card;
- by meters with GSM module.
Separate forms of agreements for each item have been created for owners of gas distribution pipelines. Experience shows that you should not rely only on the attentiveness of gas workers.
It is important to personally monitor the compliance of the contents of the contract with the current situation.
During the period of entry into rights, if desired, you can replace outdated equipment. It is better to do this before the inspector’s visit. Then fresh data will be entered into the act and the new agreement
You will be able to receive a new contract in 3-4 business days at the subscriber department of the regional gas service. Most companies send an email or phone message indicating that the document is ready.
