I. – Registration and land registration formalities are merged for deeds published in the real estate register and deeds relating to rights registered in the Mayotte land register, excluding the liens and mortgages mentioned in i of 1° of article 2521 of the Civil Code. The new formality is called the “merged formality”.
Excluded from this system are: court decisions and deeds for which it is impossible to carry out the merged formality.
II. – The registration of deeds subject to this formality and obligatorily subject to land registration or those relating to rights that must be registered in the Mayotte land register results from their registration or registration. The same applies to deeds admitted to land registration or those relating to rights registered on an optional basis when registration or registration is required at the same time as registration.
III. – The merged formality must be requested within one month of the date of the deed. However, in the case of an auction, this period is extended to two months. With regard to deeds whose publication or those relating to rights whose registration is optional, the formalities of registration and land publicity or registration remain separate if the merged formality has not been requested within the period provided for in article 635 for the registration formality.
IV. – In the event of rejection of the land registration formality or refusal with provisional protective registration the deed is nevertheless deemed to be registered on the date of filing.
