What information will I get from an imaged document?

Scanned images of titles, plans and dealings are all available to order via the NSW land imaged document search. Most documents are available online within minutes, in PDF format.

Some older documents have not yet been scanned, but you can still order and receive them online. These older non-imaged documents are manually scanned and generally take only a few hours, during business hours, to return online.

• imaged dealing

What should I know about document types?

A variety of different document types are available to search. These include the following:

What is an ADIS document number?

When retrieving Automated Deeds Indexing System (ADIS) imaged documents, you need to use a document number for the search criteria. The correct format for an ADIS document number is:

• ADIS book (four numbers)
• followed by the ADIS number (three numbers).

For example, ADIS book 4123 followed by ADIS number 456 creates the document number 4123456.

Examples

The document number must be seven digits. If the ADIS number is fewer than three, you need to add zero before the ADIS number.

When you enter 1000 as the ADIS number, you need to remove the thousands digit and enter the number as 000.

How do I order a copy of a bill of sale?

To obtain a copy of a bill of sale:

1. Select ADIS book and number from the imaged document type list.
2. Enter the document number for the required bill of sale.

What should I know about document subtypes?

Document subtypes only return for deposited and strata plans. You can search on available subtypes throughout your search.

Valid document subtypes are below:

Only documents with available document subtypes are available to select.
