Frequently asked questions
Find answers about property searches, document types, delivery and support.
What is the Land Registry?
The Land Registry records ownership and title information for registered land and property. Its records can include title numbers, registered owner details, title plans, charges, restrictions and other interests recorded against a property.
What does LandRegistries.com do?
LandRegistries.com is an independent online document-ordering service. We help customers search for a property, choose the Land Registry documents they need, place an order online and receive available documents by email after processing.
What are the prices for our documents?
Document prices are shown clearly before checkout. The total can vary depending on the documents selected and whether standard or priority processing is chosen.
Are the documents you provide official?
Where available, the documents supplied are official Land Registry documents or copies sourced from the relevant Land Registry records. This website is an independent service provider and is not HM Land Registry, GOV.UK or any government department.
How quickly will I receive my documents?
Documents are normally supplied digitally by email after processing. Timescales can vary by document type, record availability and whether standard or priority processing is selected during checkout.
How does the Land Registry document service work?
Start with a postcode or address, select the matching property, choose the documents you need, enter your contact details and complete secure card payment. Staff then process the order and send available documents by email.
Can I order documents for someone else's property?
Yes. Many title documents are publicly available, so you do not normally need to own the property to request them. Availability depends on the records held for that property.
What if a property is not registered?
If a property is not registered, some standard Land Registry title documents may not be available. Support will review the order and advise on the next step where possible.
Who typically uses this service?
Customers include homeowners, buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, executors, property professionals and people checking ownership, boundaries, leasehold information or documents referred to on a title.
What is a filed plan?
A filed plan is commonly referred to as a Title Plan. It shows the general extent of the registered land and is usually read together with the Title Register.
What is the difference between a Title Register and a Title Plan?
A Title Register contains written information about the property title, such as ownership details, title number, restrictions and charges. A Title Plan is a plan showing the general boundaries of the registered land.
Is this an official government website?
No. This is an independent document-ordering service and is not affiliated with HM Land Registry, GOV.UK or any government department.
