فرد / زمین ریکارڈ
Land records are kept by each province's Board of Revenue, and some provinces offer online lookups.

Last checked November 2026

Land ownership records (often called fard, jamabandi or record of rights) are maintained by provincial Boards of Revenue. Sindh and Balochistan offer online land record portals, and Punjab provides records through its Board of Revenue services and land record centres.

What to bring

  • Owner's CNIC
  • Land details: district, tehsil, mouza/deh, khewat or survey number

Take originals plus photocopies. Offices may ask for extra documents.

Your route

  1. 1

    Note the district, tehsil, mouza/deh and khewat or survey number of the land.

  2. 2

    In Sindh or Balochistan, search the provincial Zameen portal. In Punjab, use the Board of Revenue's land record services.

  3. 3

    Request a certified copy (fard) or mutation at the land record centre if you need an official document.

  4. 4

    Verify ownership and any encumbrance before buying property.

Tips & common mistakes

  • Always verify the record yourself before buying land.
  • Check for pending mutations, mortgages or court cases.
  • Get a certified copy for legal use. A screenshot isn't enough.

Frequently asked questions

What is a mutation (intiqal)?+

It's the official change of ownership in revenue records after a sale, gift or inheritance.

Fees, documents and timelines change, so Raasta deliberately doesn't quote fees. Confirm current requirements on the official website before you apply. Spotted something out of date?
