Change Notices
How dow I File a Change Notice?
To file a change to an existing notice, you must log in to the website, whether
you are a user of a client account or a one-time user who has pre-paid fees. Once
you log in, you will be on a Home page from which you can select the action you
want to do. If you want to amend, continue or terminate an existing notice, select
the Change an existing notice of security interest or Lien option to go to the File
Change Notice screen.
The Filing Type Change Notice screen is used to add notices that relate to an existing
notice of security interest or notice of lien. The types of change notices are Amended Notice, Continuation
Statement, Termination Statement, and Objection Statement. In the first Filing
Type Change Notice screen, you must select the type of change notice you wish to enter.
Next, you must provide the registration number of the initial
notice to which the change relates, and enter the Access Number for the initial filing.
Access Number is not required if you are filing a notice of Objection.
Once these values are entered, click the Next button
to proceed to the screen for entry of change notice details. If you do not know the Access Number associated with the
filing, you may obtain that number using the Lookup Access Number feature or by contacting the Land Registry Authority.
