Property e-stamp questions
What information is normally needed?
Party details, property location and identifiers, the type of transaction, ownership share, value and encumbrance information.
Is a gift treated the same as a sale?
No. A gift and sale are different transactions, and consideration, relationships and location may affect the official category.
Does the e-stamp complete the transfer?
No. It is one part of the applicable process; additional legal and registration steps may apply.
