Frequently asked questions
Can a foreigner buy farmland in Uruguay?
Yes. Uruguay places no restrictions on land purchases by foreign nationals: no residency, citizenship or prior authorization is required, and a foreign buyer holds exactly the same property rights as a Uruguayan citizen. The transaction is executed before a public notary and registered with the national Property Registry.
What is the CONEAT index and why does it drive price?
CONEAT is Uruguay's official soil productivity index. The national average equals 100: a farm rated 150 produces 50% more than the country average, while one rated 60 produces 40% less. It is the primary factor in valuing rural land, alongside location and existing improvements.
How much does a hectare of farmland cost in Uruguay?
Price per hectare depends mainly on the CONEAT index, the department and the soil's productive aptitude. Lower-index livestock farms sit at the bottom of the range and high-productivity cropland at the top. Tierras del Sur publishes the price per hectare for every available farm so comparison is straightforward.
What taxes and costs apply when buying a farm?
The sale is subject to the Property Transfer Tax, levied separately on buyer and seller. Notary fees, registry costs and the real estate commission are added to that. Once acquired, the farm pays annual Rural Property Tax and Net Worth Tax based on its assessed fiscal value.
