Section 175
of National Land Code (Revised - 2020)
Section 175
(a)
the register document of title to the land does not, in his opinion, require replacement; and
(b)
the issue document was issued under this Act, he may, instead of issuing title in continuation, issue a duplicate issue document only.
(2)
Where the circumstances in which the Registrar or Land
Administrator proposes to issue a duplicate issue document under this section are those described in paragraph 166(1)(c) or (d), section 168 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, as they would if he proposed to issue title in continuation in the like circumstances.
(3)
Section 169 shall apply with respect to the fees payable in connection with the issue of duplicate issue documents as they apply with respect to the fees payable in connection with the continuation of title to land as a whole.
(4)
Any duplicate issue document issued under this section shall have the like validity and effect in all respects as that which it is intended to replace.
(5)
On issuing any such document, the Registrar or Land
Administrator shall make a memorial thereof on the register document of title to the land, showing the date of issue and the reasons therefor; and the former issue document shall thereupon be deemed to have been cancelled for all purposes, and shall, if in his hands, be destroyed forthwith.
