Check the availability of documents before ordering
Most Land Registry documents are immediately "Available" to view or download. However, some require further investigation and may be scanned in or sent by post. Once a document has been ordered the status will update.
Check the status of requests after ordering
To check the status of your documents, either go back to the Official Copies tab (above) or navigate to the matter's Documents library (below). The status will be one of:
HMLR Processing = HMLR are still manually processing the request, it will eventually change to one of the following;
View = document scanned in and ready to view in OW or download as a digital PDF.
Sent in post = HMLR are sending this document in the post.
Unavailable = HMLR unable to provide this document.
Documents sent by post
Title plans and copies filed (leases, deeds) are frequently sent in the post. They will be sent directly from the Land Registry to your office and addressed to you. If you'd like them directed to a different address please adjust this in your Account section before ordering documents which may be sent by post.
Please note, we are unable to provide timescales on the arrival of postal documents as they are sent directly from the Land Registry and not by Orbital Witness.
