3. When was the dwelling built?
That period must be marked when the official permit for occupation had been issued. In case the dwelling does not have a permit yet but is already occupied then the year of move must be considered as the year of construction.

In case the main structural parts of the building consisting the dwelling had been significantly transformed since their original built (e.g. joist between floors had been wrecked then rebuilt) the year of rebuilding must be marked as the year of construction irrespectively of the time when the permit had been issued.

Refurbishing dwellings with the main walls unaltered or creating a new dwelling out of more dwellings do not change the year of construction.
