Consent to subscribe to the Land Registry’s e-Alert Service for Authorized Institutions:

To facilitate enhancement of credit risk management of authorized institutions and at the request of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority ("HKMA"), the Land Registry's e-Alert Service for Authorized Institutions ("Service") allows authorized institutions (i.e. licensed banks, restricted licence banks and deposit-taking companies regulated by the HKMA) ("AIs"), with consent from owners as may be required under the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance, to subscribe to email notification service in relation to property or properties against which they hold a mortgage or charge.

To enable the relevant AI to subscribe to the Service after you have granted to the AI a mortgage or charge against your property, you are requested to give your express consent to permit the Land Registry to notify the relevant AI about mortgages and charges lodged for registration against your property. Your consent will cover all properties owned by you listed on this form ("Property"). You may also elect to receive notifications about mortgages and charges registered against your Property.

If you do not give your consent in the form below, this will not necessarily mean your loan application will be denied, but the relevant AI will be unable to subscribe to the Service in relation to your Property and will not be notified about the registration of mortgages and charges against your Property. This does not prevent the relevant AI from obtaining information about your Property by searching the Land Register and other land records maintained by the Land Registry.

If you agree to give consent to the Service, this means that you are giving express consent to:

  1. DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited providing the following information to the Land Registry in its application to subscribe to the Service in relation to your Property:
    1. the Property Reference Number of your Property;
    2. your name(s) and identification document number(s)/company registration number(s);
    3. the memorial number of the charge or mortgage document in favour of DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited; and
    4. a copy of this consent form;
  2. the Land Registry using the information referred to in (a) and other information in its possession from time to time for the provision of the Service and particularly, for the purpose of sending email notifications about mortgages and charges lodged for registration against your Property;
  3. the Land Registry sending email notifications to DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited containing the following particulars of any charge or mortgage lodged for registration against your Property:
    1. date of instrument;
    2. memorial number of instrument;
    3. date of delivery of instrument;
    4. nature of instrument;
    5. Property Reference Number; and
    6. Address or lot number of Property;
  4. DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited notifying the Land Registry in the event of the following in order to terminate the Service:
    1. the charge/mortgage in favour of DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited has been discharged or transferred to another mortgagee; or
    2. the ownership of the Property has changed (if known); or
    3. the owner(s) (or in case of co-owned Property, any of the co-owners) have withdrawn their consent by written notice; or
    4. DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited's authorisation is revoked under the Banking Ordinance (Cap.155).

If you do not give the above consent, this would mean that DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited cannot subscribe to the Service in respect of your Property and this may affect the terms of your loan.
