Land Revenue Act (Bare Act)

Land Revenue Act, 1967 — Bare Act (As Amended Up-to-Date)
The Complete Statutory Text Governing Land Revenue Administration in Pakistan

Land revenue administration touches nearly every aspect of property, ownership, and rural governance in Pakistan — and getting the legal framework right is critical for officials, lawyers, and landowners alike. The Land Revenue Act, 1967 (Bare Act, As Amended Up-to-Date) provides the complete current English text of this foundational revenue statute, published by Mansoor Law Book House.

Why This Bare Act is Essential

The Land Revenue Act, 1967 governs the assessment, collection, and administration of land revenue across Pakistan, along with the maintenance of records-of-rights, mutations, and periodical revenue records prepared by patwaris and revenue officials. It defines the administrative hierarchy responsible for land revenue matters — from Collectors down to Tehsildars, Naib Tehsildars, and Patwaris — and remains the primary legal reference for anything touching land records, mutations, or revenue disputes anywhere in the country.
