This guide is aimed at conveyancers.
Original documents are only required if your application is a first registration which is not based on certified copy documents.
We will return the originals once the application has been completed. If your application is not a first registration, we will only need certified copies of deeds or documents you send to us with HM Land Registry applications. Once we have made a scanned copy of the documents you send to us, they will be destroyed. This applies to both originals and certified copies.
We only provide factual information and impartial advice about our procedures. Read more about the advice we give.
