The Land Tax Act 2000 provides that the Commissioner of State Revenue is to arrange for a search of land tax (paid or owing) for any specified land where an application and the payment of a prescribed fee has been made. To facilitate the land tax search, a certificate is issued which includes the date and time of the search.

Direct online land tax searches are avaliable to approved applicants only. If you are not a solicitor, trustee or other person approved by the Commissioner, you need to apply to the State Revenue Office or at Service Tasmania.

Searches are based on the information available on the Land Tax database at the date and time of the search.
