Fee reductions when using Scale 1
There are reduced fees for:
- voluntary first registrations (applications for first registration based on adverse possession or lost deeds are regarded as voluntary applications, unless the application includes a deed that triggers compulsory registration) (minimum 25% reduction)
- transfers of whole and surrenders of whole for registered titles when using the portal or Business Gateway (reduced by 55% compared with the fee for postal applications).
There are no reduced fees for:
- applications for first registration of title to a rentcharge, a franchise or a profit, or mines and minerals held apart from the surface (as these are not treated as voluntary applications for fee purposes)
- transfers of part and other applications affecting part of registered titles even when using the portal or Business Gateway
- applications to register leases when using the portal or Business Gateway
