Purpose and Coverage: This Supplement is issued for the purpose of modifying LRA Circular No. 26-2011, with subject: Implementation and Use of Parcel Verification and Certification Services Using the Philippine Land Registration and Information System in the Registries of Deeds, which was published on December 16, 2011.
     

  2. Definition of Terms: For purposes of this Implementing Guidelines, the following terms or words and phrases shall mean or be understood as follows:


    1. “Lot Configuration” – shall mean the generated output resulting from the procedure provided in Section 3 hereof. This term shall replace the term “Plan” provided in LRA Circular No. 26-2011.


    All other terms or words and phrases herein indicated shall have the same meanings as ascribed in previous published Circulars and Guidelines of this Authority (i.e., Implementing Guidelines on Electronic Registration of Chattel Mortgage and Other Personal Properties, which was published on January 7, 2009; Implementing Guidelines on Electronic Recording of Transactions on Unregistered Land, which was published on January 17, 2009; Implementing Guidelines on Electronic Registration of Land Titles and Deeds, which was published on July 5, 2009; and the Amendment to the Implementing Guidelines on Electronic Registration of Chattel Mortgage and Other Personal Properties, Electronic Recording of Transactions on Unregistered Land, and Electronic Registration of Land Titles and Deeds, which was published on February

  4. Included Information: The Lot Configuration shall include the following data:
