Forms are legal instruments
The TA6 and TA10 are not casual questionnaires. Answers can feed into contractual reliance and later disputes if inaccurate.
Preparation beats improvisation
Gather paperwork before you rush answers. If you are unsure, say so and discuss with your solicitor rather than guessing.

How Property Passport UK helps
Property Passport UK is built to reduce fragmented property information. It combines official context with owner-controlled Documents and permissions so Stakeholders can prepare earlier. It supports information organisation, property checks, document sharing, data provenance, and transaction preparation. It does not replace HM Land Registry, regulated advice, your surveyor, or your conveyancer.
Frequently asked questions

Does Property Passport UK replace a survey?
No. Physical inspection and professional reporting remain essential where you need them.
Does Property Passport UK replace official records?
No. Treat HM Land Registry, local authority search products, and other official sources as authoritative for their purposes. Use Property Passport UK to organise what you know and to share material under permissions.
