From Monday, 9th December 2024, HM Land Registry (HMLR) will implement significant fee increases for various information services, including Agricultural Credits and Land Charges. This adjustment, the first in over a decade, aims to accelerate service improvements and support the ongoing digital transformation.

The fee will increase by £4, for example: 

  • inspection of an individual register or plan (by electronic means) will increase from £3 to £7
  • official copy of an individual register or plan (by electronic means) will increase from £3 to £7
  • registration, cancellation or rectification of an entry per name (Agricultural Credits Service or application) will increase from £1 to £5

HMLR encourages firms to update their systems and pricing structures in anticipation of these changes. The fee increase reflects the rising costs of maintaining and enhancing services and will enable further investment in HMLR’s digitisation efforts.

This move underscores HMLR’s commitment to improving service delivery and ensuring that their systems remain robust and efficient in the digital age.
