Expedite public guide


Important

This service is for customers who have an immediate need.

RoS offers an expedite service for Land Register applications that need to be registered urgently.

Recently submitted applications

The majority of applications submitted to RoS are completed within 35 days.

You should not submit an expedite request within this 35-day timeframe unless it is urgently required:

  • within this period
  • shortly after

You must consider this before submitting your request.

An open case is protected

Having an open case carries little to no risk.

Legal protections are backdated to the day on which the Keeper receives the application.

Having an open case does not impact an owner’s ability to:

  • sell land or property
  • remortgage
  • make changes to their land or property

Check if an expedite request is right for your circumstances

Depending on your circumstances, an expedite request might not be the right option for you.

If you want to:

If you’re unsure about what to do, contact our Customer Services team on 0800 169 9391.

Check your application reference

If your application reference contains TE, i.e. 25TE*******, note that this:

  • is an existing enquiry related to a claimed Title Inaccuracy
  • should not be submitted via an expedite request form

Instead, you should contact post-reg@ros.gov.uk

If your property is not appearing on ScotLIS

You may have checked ScotLIS to view your property registration. Properties are only viewable on ScotLIS after the registration process is completed.

After a property has been registered, it will appear on ScotLIS after one working day.
