The Survey and Land Registration Bureau has launched real estate registration, ownership transfer, and application status inquiry services through the National Portal bahrain.bh, in coordination with the Information & eGovernment Authority. This step comes as part of efforts to unify government services on a single national platform and to support the implementation of the Government Program (2023–2026), particularly in the areas of service digitization and quality enhancement.

The Bureau explained that benefiting from the available services requires the use of the eKey and the enhanced eKey 2.0. The real estate registration and ownership transfer application service enables users to complete the required information and upload the necessary documents electronically with ease and security.
