KP e-registry linked to land record system, FBR

PESHAWAR: The e-Registry, Land Record Management System, and Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) were officially connected in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Wednesday, aiming to enhance the province's land registration and mutation process with greater transparency and efficiency. KP Chief Secretary Dr. Muhammad Fakhre Alam Irfan and Finance and Revenue Adviser Tariq Mehmood Pasha officially launched the new system.

During the inauguration, officials explained that integrating the e-Registry with the Land Record Management System would automate the entire procedure, making registration and mutation faster and more transparent. The digital system would ensure that irregularities are eliminated, as preparation of mutations, biometric verification, and recording mutation numbers would all be automated.

By connecting the computerized Land Record Management System with the FBR, the government plans to collect federal taxes on mutations through online payments, which will be verified directly by the FBR. Attendees were informed that proof of tax payment would be linked to each mutation, promoting transparency. Citizens will benefit from avoiding multiple visits to government offices and unnecessary delays.

The Senior Member of the FBR Board, relevant secretaries, the Managing Director of the Information Technology Board, and officials from the Revenue Board attended the inauguration and briefing.
