The Ministry of Lands is working on a programme
to automate and digitise land registries across

of paper records to electronic records. As of
today, some property records under the Nairobi
Lands Registry and the Central Registry have
been digitised and some applications including
land searches, land rent clearance certificates,
consents to transfer and valuation requisitions
