The directory, briefly
The village unit the registration department files deeds and guideline values under. It decides which sub registrar office a deed is presented at.
- Three directions
- Village, office, district
The office of a village, the villages of an office, or the offices of a registration district.
- Shared names
- Shown apart
Tamil Nadu reuses village names across districts. Each namesake is listed with its own office, taluk and district.
- What it decides
- Where a deed goes
A deed is presented, and an EC issued, at the office that holds the guideline village.
How to look up a sub registrar office

Read the matches
When a village name exists in several districts, pick the row whose taluk and district match your land.
When it helps with land
Before registering
Confirm the office that holds your village before booking a slot or paying stamp duty.
Reading a deed
See which villages an office covers, to make sense of the office named on an old document.
A district at a glance
Every office in a registration district, with how many villages each one serves.
The directory says where land is registered today. Villages have moved between offices, so an older deed may have been registered elsewhere, and the office never tells you who owns the land. Check the EC and the land record for that.
Questions people ask
Which office do I register at?
The one listed against the village of the property. If you have the spot rather than the village name, the SRO finder mini resolves the office from a pin.
How do I find the villages under a sub registrar office?
Choose "Villages of an office" above, type the office name, for example Neelankarai, and press Run. You get every guideline village the office registers for, with its taluk.
How many sub registrar offices are in my district?
Choose "Offices in a district" and type the registration district. You get each office with the number of villages it covers.
Why does my village show more than one office?
Tamil Nadu reuses village names across districts, so the same name can belong to different villages under different offices. Pick the row whose taluk and district match your land.
Is the registration district the same as the revenue district?
Not always. The registration department draws its own districts, so an office can sit in a registration district with a different name from the revenue district on the patta.
Is this free?
Yes.
