Boundary marking

(1) The owner of a plot of land may require from the owner of a neighbouring plot of land that the latter cooperate in erecting fixed boundary markers and, if a boundary marker has moved or become unrecognisable, in the restoration.

(2) The type of marking and the procedure are determined in accordance with Land statutes; if these contain no provisions, local practice decides.

(3) The costs of the boundary marking are to be borne by the parties in equal parts, unless a legal relationship existing between them leads to a different conclusion.
