​KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Land Certificate


A land certificate was historically a document issued by the Land Registry as proof of ownership of registered land. It served as physical evidence that the holder was the registered proprietor.


Since the modernization of the land registration system under the Land Registration Act 2002, land certificates are no longer issued. Instead, ownership details are stored electronically, and owners receive a Title Information Document as evidence of their registered title. This reflects the shift toward a fully digital land registration system.
