In December 2020 the Registrar General mandated that twenty-nine dealings will become Required Dealings from 22 March 2021, meaning the documents must be lodged electronically.
This means that NSW LRS will be unable to accept these dealings in paper at our Lodgment Office if signed on or after that date.
Please refer to the NSW LRS announcement published in December 2020 for the full list of impacted dealings. This list is also available on the Registrar General’s website, on the Schedule of eDealings page.
Please refer to the Registrar General’s Guidelines on eLodgments for more information on these dealings.
Waivers or exemptions to the mandate
The twenty-nine documents listed must be lodged electronically from 22 March 2021 unless a Conveyancing Rules waiver applies, and the item is exempted from electronic lodgement.
The Office of the Registrar General has provided information about waivers to the March 2021 mandate. The list of exceptions to the mandated dealings can be viewed through the
Office of Registrar General’s website.
Download the Conveyancing Rules Exemption Form
Where an exemption to electronic lodgment applies, a Conveyancing Rules Exemption Form must be submitted to NSW LRS with the relevant dealings.
