Checking of Surveys Plans

When a plot of land is surveyed for the purpose of registration or transfer under the Registration of Titles Act, the land surveyor prepares a diagram or plan that is submitted to the Surveys and Mapping Division of the National Land Agency to be checked. The Division has the legal responsibility for checking cadastral surveys for adherence to the Land Surveyor’s Act and Regulations as well as the Registration of Titles Act.
