It is free to submit to and free to search on RCI. To create or update entries in RCI, an account is required.
There are two types of account types that can be used:
- RCI public account – this for members of the public who are submitting to RCI as a recorded person
- Online Services account with RCI permissions – this is for those who are submitting on behalf of clients or whose organisation structure means they will be submitting on behalf of a significant number of recorded persons.
You do not need an RCI account to search the register.
RCI public account
The purpose of the public account is to enable a recorded person, to:
- create one entry or multiple entries as the recorded person
- add multiple entries for their land
- add multiple associates
The account also allows the recorded person to save draft applications, resume and update entries and view a dashboard showing the applications they have created.
The public account allows submissions for one recorded person only.
A public account should be used by a member of an organisation where an online services account is not appropriate. Each member of the organisation who is a recorded person must each create their own public account following the instructions below and make their submission.
How to create your public account
A public account can be created through the RCI website by clicking on ‘Create an entry’. You will then be asked to create an account or log in to proceed.
To create a public account, you will be required to:
- provide your name, email address and contact address
- create a password
- enter a one-time passcode (OTP), which will be automatically generated by the system and emailed to your email address
Online services account
An online services account may be used by professionals submitting on behalf of clients.
With an online services account and RCI permissions, you will be able to:
- create entries for more than one recorded person
- save draft applications, resume and update entries
- view a dashboard showing the applications they have created
