At the cutting edge: our Local Land Charges Programme wins coveted digital award

Posted by: , Posted on: - Categories: Local Land Charges

Our Local Land Charges Programme has won the Geospatial Innovation of the Year category in the Digital Leaders 100 awards. We are incredibly proud that industry has recognised the importance and long-term benefits of the programme and the national register.

Digital applications will be game-changing – for you and us

Our latest move away from paper-based processes means that from November 2022 we will no longer accept scanned or PDF copies of AP1s for changes to existing titles via the HM Land Registry portal. 

What’s happening with electronic signatures in the property market? 

Electronic signatures have a major role to play in the future of land registration. We're working to ensure everyone can trust the security and usability of their signature, regardless of which platform they wish to use for signing.

Digital land registration – a vision for the future of digital conveyancing

The pace of digital change is accelerating. At HM Land Registry we are investing in more digital, intuitive services that help our customers to complete and submit applications that are right the first time.

Increasing our pace from the start

Our Early Engagement Team plays an important role in promoting the benefits of our Local Land Charges service and accelerating the number and pace of local authority migrations. Team leader Jamie Winch explains how they're building working relationships with councils across England and Wales.
