The Form LL Certificate of Compliance must contain specific prescribed wording set by HM Land Registry. If the wording is incorrect or incomplete, Land Registry will reject the application and your transaction will stall. This page explains the required wording and what Optima Legal and Integra require in addition to the Land Registry standard.
Optima Legal, the panel firm used by Barclays, requires additional specific wording beyond the Land Registry standard. When submitting your case through FormLL, note that Optima Legal is involved and our specialists will draft the certificate to their exact requirements.
Integra, the panel firm used by Halifax and Lloyds, also has specific wording requirements. As with Optima Legal, note this when submitting your case and our specialists will ensure compliance first time.
The certificate must reference the specific transaction document being submitted to Land Registry. A certificate drafted for a remortgage (Mortgage Deed) cannot be reused for a sale (Transfer/TR1). Always confirm the transaction type when starting your case.
The certificate must bear a wet ink signature. An electronic or digital signature is not acceptable. The solicitor signs the certificate, scans it and emails the scanned copy to you. This is sufficient for Land Registry purposes.
