EFIS 64, October 2010 : Scottish Conveyancing

You must login to download the contents of this EFIS.

RoS introduced a new system, known as Scan and Create, in November of 2008. Application forms and accompanying deeds are electronically scanned at the point of receipt and key information (i.e. parties, price and deed types) is captured by Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology and used to create the Land Register application record.

The purpose of this change is to speed up the daily intake process and allow RoS staff to complete applications for registration on the basis of the scanned images. Visit http://www.ros.gov.uk/pdfs/update29.pdf for more information.

It is important that one of the two fonts below is used for populating the form:
� Courier 12pt
� Arial 10pt

Please make sure your default font is set to one of the above. Use TOOLS>OPTIONS>STYLES to amend if necessary.

All text must be typed in UPPERCASE only (no lower case characters should be used) and all characters must fit within the confines of the text boxes. The use of � signs and commas in monetary fields is also not allowed. OyezForms will convert any fields to uppercase upon tabbing and printing.

All forms should be used immediately.
