Lands Ministry discontinues payment of land rent on e-Citizen – KBC

All payments for Land Rent shall henceforth be made on the new ardhisasa platform and not the e-Citizen platform.

The Ministry of Lands says it has completed the development of the National Land Information Management System (NLIMS), ardhisasa, for the management of land records and transactional services as an anchor for efficient, secure and transparent operations in the lands sector.

Land CS Farida Karoney says a number of transactions had not been completed by April 27, 2021 when the new platform was launched but they have provided new timelines within which these pending transactions are to be finalized for smooth transition.

“We wish to notify all land owners with pending land transactions (within Nairobi County), which have been paid for and are awaiting survey details (Deed Plans/ RIMs), to submit the said survey details to the Director of Land Administration, Ardhi House, Nairobi, for completion within fourteen (14) days from Monday, May 17, 2021. Those who fail to meet this requirement will forfeit the fees already paid,” She said.

To pay land rent, members of the public will be expected to register or log in to the ardhisasa platform (https://ardhisasa.lands.go.ke/), click on Land Rent under Land Administration Services, search for the parcel number or title number where invoices for the Land Rent will be displayed.

Instructions on how to complete the payment will also be provided in that section.
