Electronic conveyancing transactions

Transactions need to meet specific requirements to be eligible for electronic conveyancing. The transaction must be:

• a relevant transfer agreement (contract and pursuant Form 1 Transfer)
• or
• an electronic lodgement network (ELN) lodgement (Form 1 Transfer only).

Transactions involving a party using one name only are currently out of scope for eConveyancing.

Relevant transfer agreement

A relevant transfer agreement is an agreement to transfer land in Queensland and a pursuant Form 1 Transfer to be registered with the Queensland Titles Registry under the Land Title Act 1994.

The transaction can:

• include concessions for
  • home
  • first home
  • first home vacant land
  • family business
• be aggregated under section 30 with
  • the transfer of other dutiable property under the same agreement
  • another relevant transfer agreement.

The transaction cannot include:

• exemptions
• transfers by direction.

ELN lodgement

An ELN lodgement is a Form 1 Transfer of land registered under the Land Title Act. It must not be pursuant to an agreement to transfer dutiable property.

The transaction can include:

• an exemption that can be self assessed (other than mandatory buyback under the Retirement Villages Act exemption (s. 141A))
• a concession for
  • home
  • first home
  • first home vacant land
  • family business.

Amending a transaction

Be careful when entering data in the ELNO workspace, because it’s carried over to QRO Online and forms the basis of your transfer duty assessment.

If a transaction is in draft (i.e. has not been submitted), you can amend:

• pre-filled information in the ELNO workspace
• other information in QRO Online.

After the transaction has been submitted, email selfassessment@treasury.qld.gov.au to request assistance. You will need to give us at least 24 hours notice and include:

• the transaction number
• a copy of the contract (if applicable)
• any concession claim forms
• any other relevant information.

If your request is urgent, it will be given priority. We cannot guarantee an immediate response in all instances.

  • Duties Act 2001
  • Taxation Administration Act 2001
