The Odisha certified RoR is an official, authenticated extract from land registers managed by the Revenue and Disaster Management Department. Additionally, it has detailed data on property ownership, area, and classification. The official portal offers online access to land records through the official Bhulekh Odisha portal, where citizens can search land details using data such as district, Tahasil, village and Khatiyan, plot number and tenant details. However, an online RoR view and a certified copy shouldn’t be treated as the same. The certified copy is necessary when an authenticated land-record document is specifically requested.
Since 1 July 2026, the application for a certified copy of RoR has moved to the e-District Odisha portal, according to the Revenue and Disaster Management Department. This guide explains the difference, how to apply, the fee, the time limit and how to check that your copy is genuine.
Quick Answer
- Odisha Certified RoR 2026 is the authenticated copy or extract of the Record of Rights.
- The Bhulekh Odisha portal lets citizens check land record details online, but that screen is not a certified copy.
- A user can search records through information such as district, Tahasil, Khatiyan, and plot details.
- A certified copy has different requirements and procedures from the online RoR: apply on e-District Odisha (or at a Common Service Centre). The service time limit is 3 days.
- However, for any missing or incorrect record, talk with the concerned Tahasildar or the official land-record authority.
What Is a Certified RoR?
A RoR is the official land record that contains information concerning land rights and related particulars. Under Odisha’s land record framework, users can find accurate entries regarding their land. It is useful when a person needs an official land record document rather than simply viewing the data on a website. The online Bhulekh system is useful for searching information such as Khatiyan number, Tahasil, district, and other records against a property.
In Odia, the RoR is commonly called the Khatiyan (ଖତିୟାନ). Its front page shows the tenant (owner) details, rent and cess, and its back page lists the plots with their area and land type.
Certified Copy vs Online View
The online RoR view and a certified copy are different; for example:
The Odisha online services allow citizens to check available land information through Bhulekh Odisha. The portal offers access to the RoR information page, where a user can search for tenant and rent details along with plot details. It offers a Map View for checking map-related information.
A certified copy is an authenticated copy or extract of the official record. You can view and print the RoR from Bhulekh, but a certified copy is issued by the Tahasil office through the e-District service and can then be downloaded from your e-District account.
If an office, court, or institution specifically asks for the certified RoR, showing them the screen may not be accepted. The applicant must attach and submit the appropriate certified document issued by the revenue office.
| Point | Online RoR view (Bhulekh) | Certified copy of RoR (e-District) |
| What it is | Information view and printout of the current RoR | Authenticated copy issued by the Tahasildar / Additional Tahasildar |
| Where | bhulekh.ori.nic.in | edistrict.odisha.gov.in (online) or a Common Service Centre |
| Login needed | No | Yes, a one-time e-District registration |
| Fee | Free | Government user fee plus a small service charge (see below) |
| Time | Instant | 3 days (ORTPS time limit) |
Note: A Bhulekh printout carries an empty box marked “BLANK SPACE FOR STAMPING” and the date and time it was printed. It is not signed by any officer, which is why offices that want an authenticated record ask for the certified copy.
Who May Need It
A certified RoR is necessary for landowners, recorded tenants, or other persons who require an authenticated record related to land. The requirement depends on the purpose for which the document is being submitted. It is necessary if official land record details are needed for property-related processes, verification and documentation, and administrative processes. Before you apply online, confirm whether the receiving authority requires a certified copy, RoR view, or other related document.
How to Request a Certified RoR
To check the available RoR details online, you must use the Bhulekh Odisha portal. Additionally, the portal’s search facility enables citizens to identify land records through details such as:
- District
- Tahasil
- Village
- Khatiyan number
- Plot number
- Tenant details
The applicant must compare the displayed information with the land documents. If you want a certified copy, apply online on e-District Odisha or through a Common Service Centre; the application goes to the concerned Tahasil office. For any issues, you can directly reach the concerned Tahasildar or Director, Land Records & Survey, Board of Revenue, Cuttack. Our step-by-step guide to checking land records on Bhulekh Odisha shows the search screens.
Steps to apply on e-District Odisha
- Open e-District Odisha and register once with your mobile number and email (OTP verification). Note your username and password.
- Log in and choose Certified Copy of RoR under the Revenue & Disaster Management Department e-Certificates.
- Fill in the land details (district, Tahasil, village, Khatiyan or plot) exactly as they appear on Bhulekh, and attach any document the form asks for.
- Pay the fee shown on the screen and submit. Keep the application reference number.
- Track the application. Once it is delivered, download the certified copy from your e-District account.
Our tip: Search your Khatiyan on Bhulekh first and keep a screenshot of it. Copying the exact village name and Khatiyan number into the e-District form avoids a rejection for wrong details. If you don’t know the number, see how to find your Khatiyan number online.
Documents and Information Needed
The exact information a user needs depends on the method and the purpose of the request. However, for searching a land record online, Bhulekh Odisha asks users to search using the district, Tahasil, village, plot number, tenant details and Khatiyan number. It is useful to keep the following land details and documents available:
- District name
- Tahasil name
- Village name
- Khata or Khatiyan details
- Plot number
- Recorded tenant or landholder details
- Existing land documents, where applicable
If you want a certified copy from the revenue office, carry necessary supporting land documents and identification if requested by the concerned authority. Requirements can vary based on the specific application purpose; therefore, applicants should confirm them with the concerned office.
Fees and Delivery/Download
There is a crucial difference between getting a certified copy and looking up land information online. Online land-record information is available on the Bhulekh Odisha website, which states that the information provided online is updated and no physical visit is required. A certified copy, on the other hand, is issued on payment of a government user fee. As a result, applicants shouldn’t assume that the cost or delivery method for a certified copy and an online RoR view are the same. The relevant Tahasil or revenue body can confirm the certified-copy method and costs. However, the official Bhulekh site helps to examine current online information.
| Charge | Amount | Official basis |
| Government user fee for a certified copy of RoR | ₹50 per Khata/Holding | R&DM Department Resolution, 18 August 2017 |
| e-District (DeGS) share when you apply online yourself | ₹10 | E&IT Department Notification, 27 December 2019 |
| Service charge if you apply at a Common Service Centre | ₹20 (includes the ₹10 DeGS share) | E&IT Department Notification, 27 December 2019 |
| Scanning / printing at a Common Service Centre | ₹3 / ₹5 per page | E&IT Department Notification, 27 December 2019 |
Note: These are the latest rates listed on the department’s user-fee page. The final amount is shown on the e-District payment screen before you pay, so check it there.
Under the Odisha Right to Public Services (ORTPS) Act, the time limit for “Issue of certified copy of RoR” is 3 days. The designated officer is the Tahasildar or Additional Tahasildar. If the copy is not given in time, you can appeal to the Sub-Collector; the Collector is the revisional authority.
How to Verify Authenticity
Verify that the document is the correct certified copy provided by the relevant authorities before utilizing an Odisha certified RoR. In addition, compare the information on the official Bhulekh webpage with the crucial land details. Verify information on the district, Tahasil, village, Khata/Khatiyan number, plot number, documented tenant or landholder data, and other relevant data. However, the final published RoR, or a certified copy or extract of it, is considered proof of final publication. Contact the relevant Tahasildar or the Director, Land Records & Survey, Board of Revenue, Cuttack, if you have any questions concerning validity or inconsistencies.
For certificates issued through e-District, the home page has a Verify your Certificate button. Enter the application reference number and the token number printed on the certificate, and the official copy downloads only if both are correct. Anyone receiving your copy can use the same check.
What to Do If Details Are Incorrect
If the information displayed in an Odisha online RoR appears incorrect, then first compare it with the available land documents. In addition, identify the specific errors and, rather than resolving them yourself, talk with the concerned Tahasil office for clarification. The official Bhulekh website advises users to contact the concerned Tahasildar. It also provides contact details for the Director, Land Records & Survey, Board of Revenue, Cuttack, for further assistance.
A certified copy shows the record as it stands, so a wrong entry has to be corrected first. Read our guides on correcting name, plot or area details and on land mutation if the land has changed hands. If co-owners are dividing a holding, see land partition in Odisha. To understand each column of the record, see how to read the Odisha RoR.
