S2.9.1 Writs Inducing Registration in Operational Counties

Registrable Deeds

Section 49 of the Land Registration etc.(Scotland) Act 2012 sets out that deeds are registrable "only if and in so far as registration is authorised" by an enactment. The Keeper is satisfied that the deeds listed in the guidance referred to below meet the requirements of section 49 and no enactment need be referred to on the application form for these deeds. The guidance explains which deeds are no longer registrable, what to do if the deed you seek to register is registrable under statute but is not on our list and notes deeds under the Long Leases (Scotland) Act 2012 which are registrable for a defined period.
