HB06589: AN ACT RATIONALIZING THE REQUIREMENTS IMPOSED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRARIAN REFORM REGARDING LAND REGISTRATION TO FACILITATE SPEED AND EFFICIENCY IN LAND REGISTRATION
This bill aims to streamline the land registration process in the Philippines. It clarifies the requirements imposed by the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) for land registration, particularly for lands covered by the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP). The bill removes the need for a DAR clearance or permit for registering lands not covered by CARP or those below the 5-hectare retention limit.
The streamlining of land registration requirements is expected to expedite the process, making it more efficient and less bureaucratic. This provision will benefit landowners by reducing the time and cost involved in registering their properties.
