The Dominican land registry operates with the Torrens title system and has been digitized since 2005, pursuant to the Real Estate Registration Law No. 108-05 and its complementary regulation. All new transactions can be completed digitally, but all titles created before 2005 are still undergoing a digitized process upon request from the interested party.
Accessing land register information in the Dominican Republic can be achieved through two main options, physical at the Title Registry, or in its virtual office. It's essential to be aware that the database is exclusively available in Spanish.
There are two options to access register information:
- Consultation rooms, known as “Salas de consultas”, are established in every Title Registry office throughout the country. They grant individuals access to the registry's electronic database, which operates on a scanned-based system.
- The Title Registry's virtual office within the Land Jurisdiction can be accessed via https://servicios.ri.gob.do/OficinaVirtualRT. This online platform provides access to the registry's electronic database.
