Original Turkish text

MADDE 882 · I. Kuruluş

Miktarı belirli olmayan veya değişebilen alacaklar da, belli rehin derecesine yerleştirilir ve tescilden sonra alacak miktarında meydana gelecek değişmelere bakılmaksızın sırasını korur.

Tapu memuru istem üzerine alacaklıya ipoteği gösteren bir belge verir. Sadece tescilin yapıldığını ispata yarayan bu belge kıymetli evrak niteliği taşımaz.

Tescilin yapıldığının sözleşme üzerine yazılıp onaylanması, ipotek belgesi yerine geçer.
