Manama:The Survey and Land Registration Bureau (SLRB) has introduced an improved Property Revaluation Request Service as part of the government's initiative to enhance service quality and re-engineer public services. This new service enables beneficiaries to request property revaluations, approved by the Bureau's Valuation Section, for calculating property sale transaction fees in line with Law (13) of 2013 on Real Estate Registration.
According to Bahrain News Agency, the upgraded service significantly reduces application processing time from three working days to just one. It also cuts the Service Level Agreement (SLA) by at least 25%, ensures 100% electronic service delivery, and enhances the user interface and experience. Procedures have been simplified, and service information has been standardized across all channels.
Ammar Rashid Al Khashram, Director General of Real Estate Registration at the SLRB, highlighted that the development allows beneficiaries to submit applications and supporting documents electronically through the Bureau's website, with results delivered via the system. Previously, applicants were required to submit documents in person.
Al Khashram emphasized the Bureau's ongoing digital transformation efforts, which include updating real estate registration systems, expanding electronic services, and improving integration with relevant entities. These initiatives aim to speed up transaction processing, simplify procedures, and leverage available data.
He further stated that facilitating property valuation reviews within approved legal frameworks enhances transparency, protects customer rights, and addresses the needs of individuals and institutions. This approach supports the investment environment, boosts government efficiency, and improves the experience for beneficiaries.
