Punjab land record services launched in Saudi Arabia for Pakistani expats
RIYADH: Overseas Pakistanis living in Saudi Arabia can now access Punjab land record and property registration services through the Pakistani Consulate in Riyadh, after the facility expanded beyond Jeddah.
As per reports, the Punjab Land Records Authority (PLRA) provides services that allow Pakistanis in Riyadh to obtain documents and complete various property-related processes for land they own in Punjab without travelling back to Pakistan.
The services available at the Pakistani Consulate in Riyadh include:
Fard for record: Certified land ownership record.
Fard for sale or transaction: Land record required for property transactions.
Copy of approved mutation: Official record of an approved ownership transfer.
Copy of Girdawari: Record of land cultivation and possession.
E-registration: Electronic property registration services.
Buyer registration: Registration services for property buyers.
Seller registration: Registration services for property sellers.
The initiative will give overseas Pakistanis direct access to land records and property registration services without requiring them to visit Pakistan.
As per the authority, the facility is expected to reduce travel expenses and the time spent away from work and business.
It will also help minimise fraud risk through secure government-to-government service channels.
The services will connect to PLRA’s central digital systems to ensure faster, more efficient processing of property-related requests.
