Land Title Practice Manual (Queensland)
The Land Title Practice Manual is aimed at industry professionals and details the required practice and procedures for preparing and lodging land registry forms.
- Parts 1–34 provide information relevant to the counterpart registry form.
- The remaining parts provide general information.
Updates
As the manual is updated frequently, you are advised to refer to this online version only, not to previously downloaded versions. However, to assist with library services within your firm and allow for later comparison, you may wish to save and archive each PDF version when published.
You can read the list of important updates on the site. To receive email notification of updates, practitioners can subscribe to the Titles Registry Alert mailing list.
Important information for non industry professionals
In Queensland, you can undertake your own titling transactions, which can involve complex legal considerations. Please see a legal practitioner if you require professional advice, as information provided by departmental officers is limited to explanation of requirements for registry forms and procedures.
Anyone who lodges a titling document is responsible for ensuring its accuracy and legal correctness.
