State Lease

Registration (New State Lease)

New State Leases which include Special Leases which originate from Lease Lease Back arrangements are registered by this office. We keep State Lease Registers for all four regions of the country which includes Southern, Highlands , Northern and Islands .

All new leases/titles of the respective regions are entered in these registers and registered accordingly by issuing the title references; volume and folio numbers and Registrar of Titles or the Deputy Registrar of Titles signing the lease document and dating it. The new leases to be registered are always in duplicate because one will be registered as the owner's copy and the other as the Registrar of Titles' copy.

All the new leases are referred to the Office of the Registrar of Titles for registration and issuance of an Owner's Copy of Title from the Leases and Conveyancing Section of the Land Management Division after being granted by the Land Board and fulfillment of all requirements of the Department by the lessee. Go to Leases Section of the Land Management for more information.
