(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules, which replace the Land Charges Fees Order 1985, prescribe the fees payable in respect of the services provided by the Land Charges Department of H.M. Land Registry and the methods of payment of such fees.
The fee for a written application for an official search in the index is increased to £1 and the fee for any other application for an official search is increased to £2.
The fees for all other services remain the same as those prescribed by the Land Charges Fees Order 1985 at £1.
Additionally, two new fees are prescribed to cover applications made by facsimile transmission:—
(a)a fee of £1 for an office copy of an entry in the register (including any plan); and
(b)a fee of £2 per name for an official search in the index (including the issue of a printed certificate of result).
The methods of payment of fees remain unchanged and comprise payment in cash or by postal order or by means of authorised credit accounts.
