The Legal Framework Governing Land Ownership in Kenya

 Land transactions in Kenya are governed by laws, including:

  • The Land Registration Act, 2012
  • The Land Act, 2012
  • The Constitution of Kenya (2010)
  • The National Land Commission guidelines


These laws require that all land transactions be documented and registered with the Ministry of Lands, ensuring the rightful ownership is traceable and that the land is free from encumbrances or disputes.
