PAYMENT
OF FEES
All applications for recording in the Register of Sasines or registration
in the Land Register must be submitted with the appropriate fee.
The fee can be paid by cheque, cash or Direct Debit. Direct Debit
is the only payment method for ARTL.
All other services will be invoiced.
VAT is not applicable unless stated.
Direct Debit is the most efficient and cost effective way of paying
registration fees. It avoids applications for registration being
rejected due either to insufficient or invalid payment (e.g. unsigned
cheque). Also, there are no overpayment refunds to bank as only
the correct fee is taken when a higher fee has been wrongly entered
for an application.

Debit and also to download the bank instruction and contact details

Additional points
Firms with separate offices and FAS numbers require unique Direct
Debit FAS numbers to be set up for each office. This ensures that
completed applications are returned to the correct office. However
the same bank account can be shared by the different offices, if
desired, and as a result only one bank Direct Debit instruction
form would require to be completed.
If you have any questions on using Direct Debit to pay for registration
fees, please contact Finance Section on 0131 479 3632.
