Land Subdivision and Amalgamation
Land subdivision splits one parcel into multiple titled plots; amalgamation combines multiple parcels into one. Axis Geo-System Consultants handles the full survey and processing workflow for both, in compliance with Kenyan land laws and county planning requirements.
What It Involves
For subdivisions, we prepare a scheme plan showing the proposed new plots, obtain the necessary planning approvals, and carry out the survey to place and certify new beacons for each resulting parcel. For amalgamations, we combine the boundaries of adjoining parcels into a single certified parcel. Both processes end with lodgement at the relevant land registry for new title issuance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does land subdivision work in Kenya?
Land subdivision requires a scheme plan showing the proposed new plots, county planning approval, and a certified survey placing beacons for each new parcel, before the Ministry of Lands can issue separate titles for each plot.
What is land amalgamation?
Amalgamation combines two or more adjoining parcels into a single parcel with one title, typically done when a developer wants to build a single project across what were previously separate plots.
