    Service Overview

    Make your land transfer legally valid.

    Under the Land Use Act, any transfer, assignment, mortgage, or sub-lease of land already covered by a Certificate of Occupancy requires the Governor's Consent to be legally valid. Without it, a transaction can be challenged and your ownership left unprotected.

    We prepare the deed of assignment, file the consent application, manage fee assessments, and follow up through the Ministry of Lands until consent is granted — giving your transaction full legal standing.
