Lease Deed in Visakhapatnam: the process in Andhra Pradesh
Registration and legal formalities are governed at the state level, so the exact law, portal and fees for Visakhapatnam follow Andhra Pradesh's rules. Here's how it works.
Governing law. Indian Stamp Act, 1899 (lease article, as applied in AP) and the Registration Act, 1908 (s.17 — registration compulsory for leases over one year or reserving yearly rent); TPA, 1882 (s.105 onwards). Registration administered by IGRS AP.
How lease deed works in Andhra Pradesh
- Negotiate terms and conduct title/encumbrance due diligence
- Draft the lease deed with all clauses
- Compute stamp duty (graded by term/rent) and pay via IGRS AP e-stamp
- Execute the deed (parties/authorised signatories and witnesses sign)
- Book a Sub-Registrar slot and appear for registration (compulsory for leases over one year)
- Sub-Registrar verifies, registers and returns the registered lease deed
Documents required in Andhra Pradesh
- ID and address proof of lessor and lessee (and company KYC / board resolution if applicable)
- Title/ownership documents of the leased property
- Passport-size photographs of the parties/signatories
- Encumbrance certificate / property tax receipts (where relevant)
- e-stamp paper of the computed value; ID of witnesses
Good to know in Andhra Pradesh: Leases exceeding one year (or reserving yearly rent) must be registered; an unregistered long lease is not admissible as evidence of its terms. Stamp duty rises steeply with lease length. Verify the slab and fee on the IGRS AP calculator before execution.

Lease Deed FAQs
How is a lease deed different from a rental agreement?
A lease deed is used for longer terms and commercial properties, with more detailed clauses on lock-in, escalation and exit. Long-term leases generally require mandatory registration.
Is registration mandatory for a lease?
Leases beyond a certain duration (commonly 12 months and above) must be registered to be fully enforceable. We handle stamp duty and registration for you.
Can you draft leases for shops and offices?
Yes. We draft commercial leases for shops, offices, warehouses and other premises, with clauses suited to business use.
