As announced by the Queensland Government, the State’s titles registry is being transferred to the Queensland Future Fund. This transfer will be effective as of 19 June 2021.
The Titles Registry Alert issued on 16 June 2021 advised the following:
While there will be some minor changes associated with this transfer, it remains business as usual for all functions of the titles registry.
What will change:
- A new name – Queensland’s titles registry will soon be known as ‘Titles Queensland’.
- Email addresses – an email redirect will be put in place, but please update your address books. After the transfer, our new general enquiries email will be ‘info@titlesqld.com.au’.
- Payment details – new payment details will apply to certain lodgements and eLodgements occurring after the transfer. Please see Titles Registry Alert 181 for details.
- Website – we’re launching a new website (https://ddec1-0-en-ctp.trendmicro.com:443/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=www.titlesqld.com.au&umid=24539...), which will remain a key contact point for existing and new customers of Titles Queensland. Please update links in your browsers. The current website will have re-directs established to the new site in the days following the transfer.
What won’t change:
- Our products and services – all existing functions will remain unchanged, our enquiries phone number and postal address will remain the same.
- Our team – all our existing teams will be retained during the transfer, ensuring the depth of expertise is preserved.
- Our lodgement and enquiries process – eLodgement and eConveyancing will remain as our primary lodgement options. The Brisbane (Albert street) drop-off box, the post, as well as existing state-operated regional counters will still be available as lodgement and search options, meaning there will be no change to the way transactions are lodged and enquiries are made. The Land Title Practice Manual will also continue to be available on our new web site.
- Our commitment to service – our focus remains on providing high quality titling services to industry and to the community.
