Choose the route that matches your case
| Situation | What to do |
|---|---|
| Need the named owner and basic land information | Start with Property Ownership Information |
| Need the current folio of the land register | Buy Property Title Information |
| Need restrictions and registered interests | Add encumbrance information |
| Need a boundary or strata plan | Choose the cadastral-map or strata-plan product |
Write the question before ordering
INLIS sells different slices of the land record. Buying every available product is expensive and can still leave the real legal question unanswered. According to SLA INLIS portal, the controlling detail for this branch is the specific rule or service condition cited here.
State whether you need ownership, estate description, encumbrances, a pending instrument, lot geometry or a strata plan.
Use current 2026 prices
The portal lists POI at S$5.25, PTI at S$16, PTI encumbrance information at S$11, PTI with a cadastral map at S$27.55 and PTI with a strata certified plan at S$27.55. According to SLA Land Titles Registry guide, the controlling detail for this branch is the specific rule or service condition cited here.
Record the price and product code shown at purchase because the portal is the live source.
Know the public-access boundary
From 1 April 2026, secure login is required. The portal states that general-public users have access only to specified property products and applies daily purchase limits of 10 for individuals and 200 for companies. According to SLA INLIS portal, the controlling detail for this branch is the specific rule or service condition cited here.
Do not attempt to bypass the identity, purpose or purchase controls.
Use the free owner route when it fits
SLA says owners with Singpass 2FA can view digitised title and plan information for their own private property or HDB flat without paying. According to SLA Land Titles Registry guide, the controlling detail for this branch is the specific rule or service condition cited here.
A missing record can reflect incomplete digitisation, identity mismatch, no purchaser caveat or a trust arrangement; it is not proof that ownership does not exist.
Read a title record carefully
A land-register folio can show the estate, proprietor and interests, but it is not a building-condition report, planning approval or guarantee that every physical feature is lawful. According to SLA INLIS portal, the controlling detail for this branch is the specific rule or service condition cited here.
Pair legal title work with planning, survey, building and conveyancing checks relevant to the property.
Do not duplicate PayNow purchases
INLIS warns that PayNow processing may take longer and tells users not to buy the same product again. According to SLA Land Titles Registry guide, the controlling detail for this branch is the specific rule or service condition cited here.
Check email for the invoice and product, then contact the INLIS helpdesk if delivery fails.
Run the numbers or sequence
A buyer asking only who owns a property may start with the S$5.25 POI. A conveyancing question about registered restrictions may require the S$16 PTI plus S$11 encumbrance information, a combined S$27 before any map.
The calculation or sequence above is an LBRD working example. Replace every example input with the amount, date, access condition or document from your own case. Keep the official rate or threshold beside the working so another person can reproduce the answer.
Build a verification note another person can check
Before acting, create a one-page case note headed with the task, the date checked and the person responsible. Copy only the facts that affect your decision, then attach the statement, booking, application, receipt, map record or screenshot that supplies your own input. This separates a published rule from a personal assumption. If the official page changes, keep the earlier dated record but rework the decision with the live version.
| Controlling source | What to verify | What to retain |
|---|---|---|
| SLA INLIS portal | Current product list, prices, payment methods, Singpass access and daily purchase limits from 1 April 2026. | Record the page date, the exact rule used and the case input it governs. |
| SLA Land Titles Registry guide | Purpose of the register, free owner viewing route and title-search channels. | Record the page date, the exact rule used and the case input it governs. |
Read the source in context, including definitions, exceptions and effective dates. A relevant page is not proof by itself: the cited passage must contain the particular rate, deadline, eligibility condition, access rule or warning used here. Where two official channels appear inconsistent, pause and ask the authority about the exact case rather than choosing the more convenient answer.
Use the guide with its limits
Property decisions have several parallel tracks: contract, finance, title, tax and physical condition. A correct answer on one track does not clear the others. Keep each responsibility and deadline on its own row, then ask the conveyancing lawyer or authority only the narrow question their record can answer.
No interview, personal use, fresh field visit, survey result or price check is claimed unless explicitly stated. Availability, fees and procedures can change. Reopen the linked authority page immediately before payment, travel, filing or emergency use.
