Information you’ll need for your consultation
Before starting to use the site, you should know the lot number and name of the cadastre for the property you are researching. You can obtain them from the municipality in question, which will use the property’s address to provide you with relevant data.
Many municipalities have already put their assessment rolls online.
You can find contact information for other municipalities by consulting the Répertoire des municipalités du Québec. The list of municipalities will also show the registration division of the municipality or municipalities where the property is located. (Word Format, 1.2 MB).

To open an account, you will need to complete the form at the bottom of the home page of the online Land Register of Québec.
- For occasional use
You may access information in the online Land Register of Québec without opening a client account, but you must use a credit card for payment and provide some information each time you begin a consultation session.
Note that when you choose this method, you will not receive a user code or password, and you will need to print your invoice before leaving the site. In addition, you will be asked to approve a $5 charge at the beginning of your work session. This is a credit card company preauthorization, and you will not be billed for it.
- If you do not wish to pay by credit card
If you do not wish to use a credit card for payment, you will need to go to one of the 73 land registrar offices. You should know, however, that consulting documents in the land registrar office is much more cumbersome.
