Part 3 – Register of Overseas Entities Register of overseas entities Section 158: Registration of information about land
This section amends Schedule 1 to the Economic Crime (Transparency and Enforcement) Act 2022(required information), so that an overseas entity is required to provide further details about the land it owns. This information is required as part of an application for registration or removal and as part of its updating duty under section 7. This information will not be displayed on the public register. The further details required to be provided as part of this amendment is as follows:
For land in England and Wales, this is the title number of each "qualifying estate" where the overseas entity is the registered proprietor.
For land in Northern Ireland, this is the folio number of each "qualifying estate" where the overseas entity is the registered owner.
For land in Scotland, this is the title number of each title sheet in which the overseas entity is:
entered as the proprietor in the proprietorship section for one or more plots of land registered in the Land Registers of Scotland;
the tenant under one or more leases registered in the Land Registers of Scotland
	This change is intended to capture the full range of land titles held by overseas entities so that the Registrar and the UK land registries have a clearer picture of the holdings of overseas entities for enforcement and monitoring purposes.
