Land Registration Process & Legal Services in Kenya

Land Registration Process & Legal Services in Kenya

Land registration in Kenya is governed by the Land Registration Act, 2012, which established a unified system of land registration replacing the multiple regimes that previously existed. Registration is the legal process by which ownership and interests in land are recorded in the land register, providing security of tenure and enabling lawful dealings in property.

LHK Advocates assists clients with all aspects of land registration, from first registration of unregistered land to the registration of transfers, charges, leases, and other interests. We work with the Land Registrar's offices across Kenya to ensure that our clients' land rights are properly recorded and protected.

Kenya has made significant progress in digitizing land records, and we help clients navigate both the digital and physical registry systems. Whether you need to register a newly subdivided plot, record a succession transfer, or correct an error in the register, our team ensures the process is handled efficiently and in full compliance with the law.
