Some banks reportedly provide fee discounts for those loan applicants who submit an energy certificate for the apartment.<\/p>\n\n
If the owner of the flat does not fulfil the obligation to hand over the certificate of the flat at the time of sale<\/a>, a fine of up to EUR 2,000 may be imposed under the law<\/a>, in the case of legal entities and entrepreneurs it may be even more.<\/p>\n\n
The requirements of the energy certificate of the apartment are regulated by Decree No. 364\/2012 Coll. <\/p>\n\n
