Land Title Forms

The Land Title Act authorizes the Director of Land Titles to approve forms used by applicants when making applications under the Act. Currently, there are two types of electronic forms that may be submitted: EFS PDF forms and Web Filing forms.

Web Filing forms are accessed through the Web Filing menu option in myLTSA Enterprise. The forms do not use downloadable templates and instead, are created online. A Web Filing form must be completed in compliance with the directions provided in the  Web Filing Form Practice Guides which offers comprehensive practice information for completing land title Web Filing forms.

EFS PDF forms are being replaced by Web Filing forms. PDF forms are designed to be filled out using Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Professional edition) in a version listed in the myLTSA System Requirements. Only four forms remain active and available for download. An EFS PDF form must be completed in compliance with the directions provided in the Directions for Completing EFS Forms which contains detailed instructions for completing EFS PDF forms. The forms cannot be completed with the free Adobe Reader software.

For forms submitted to the Surveyor General, go to Surveyor General Forms.

For forms submitted to the Land Owner Transparency Registry, go to LandTransparency.ca

Land Surveyors may also download the Dataset Exemption Request form here.

Forms for Members of the Public

The Director of Land Titles has authorized the use of the BC Services Card to verify identity and electronically sign forms for online submissions by the public. The authorization is set out in the E-filing Directions.

The following applications can be filled out online and then submitted using the BC Services Card, by mail or in person by appointment.

• Change mailing address on title
• File Claim of Builders Lien

The following applications can be filled out online and submitted by mail or in person by appointment. The option to submit online with the BC Services Card is expected to be available in 2024.

• Change of name
• Change of corporation name

If you don’t have a BC Services Card, you can still fill out the form online, download and print it and then submit a hardcopy (paper) form by mail or in person. If you do not have access to a printer, contact LTSA Customer Support at 1-877-577-LTSA (5872), press 1, for assistance.

Manual filing of hardcopy (paper) land title forms is limited by requirements to file forms electronically. The E-filing Directions sets out requirements for e-filing documents and includes a table of applications that are exempt from the requirement to submit the document electronically.
