      To align with the special work arrangement for government departments announced by the Government today (July 19) and to achieve more rigorous social distancing to reduce the risk of further spreading of COVID-19 in the community, the Land Registry announced that the opening hours of its offices will be adjusted as follows with effect from tomorrow (July 20) until further notice to provide emergency and essential public services:

     (1) between 9am and 1.30pm from Monday to Friday other than a public holiday for the purpose of delivering instruments for registration; and
      
     (2) between 9am and 12.30pm from Monday to Friday other than a public holiday for other purposes.
      
     Customers may also deposit documents to be delivered to the Land Registry (excluding instruments to be delivered for registration) in the Drop-in Box located near the Information Counter on the Deck Floor, High Block of Queensway Government Offices between 9am and 5pm from Monday to Friday other than a public holiday.

     Under the special work arrangement, customers may expect a longer waiting time for service.  Customers are encouraged to conduct land searches through our online search service (www.iris.gov.hk) as far as possible, and visit our offices only if they require services urgently.  For enquiries, please call the Land Registry hotline at 3105 0000.
