Why does the error say i do not have the required role to access the search/product?
Your login will be one of three different types of roles - Guest, Registered, or Billing Account. Land Enquiry Services uses roles to determine what products you can buy, what information you can see, and what types of searches you can perform. For more information about roles and increasing your access, refer to the Land Enquiry Services information page.
How do I know who is logged in?
At the top right corner, there is a grey box that will contain either 'Guest User' if you have chosen to use the application as a Guest, or it will note the name of the user who has logged in with their Landgate Login. If your Landgate Login is joined to a Billing Account, you will also see the account number to ensure you have selected the correct account before incurring charges.
Is it possible to access Map Viewer not Map Viewer Plus from Land Enquiry Services?
No, Land Enquiry Services connects you to Map Viewer Plus. It is more compatible with the latest web browsers ensuring you have a better experience locating land information. Separate access to Map Viewer is still available through the MyLandgate portal for billing account customers only.

Why are Restrictive Covenants Benefits and Burdens not appearing in the associated document list?
These documents are not linked in Land Enquiry Services the same way as other documents associated with a certificate of title. The plans and instruments for restrictive covenants will need to be purchased by typing in the unique numbers after retrieving the correct information from the title.
In Duplicate Status, why does it say "Last Issuing Details" when the title is not issued?
The "Last Issuing Details" refers to the last time that title was made paper and issued from Landgate. This would be considered historical information if the title is no longer issued.
Is there a print function within Land Enquiry Services?

When trying to order a plan in the Multiple Products screen I continually receive an error. Am I doing something wrong?
When ordering a plan in the Multiple Products screen you must enter in the correct prefix. P = Plan, DP = Deposited Plan, D = Diagram and SP = Strata Plan. If you're uncertain about which prefix to use, use the Plan Information search to investigate the plan numbers you have.
Why am I not able to search by Name?
