Abstract

In recent years,Land registration systems in many countries faces various challenges such as duplicate property, forgeries in documents, ownership conflicts, and unauthorized resale of property. Traditional systems are vulnerable to human errors, tampering of data, corruption which leads to lack of transparency and trust between buyer and seller. To overcome these issues,blockchain technology offers an immutability and transparency land registration system, but blockchain alone fails to ensure ownership integrity during transfer. This paper proposes a Blockchain and Non-Fungible Token (NFT)-based land registration system which ensures unique ownership of property , prevents duplicate registration of land , and reduces fraudulent during transactions. Each land parcel is represented as a unique NFT deployed on a blockchain network, which acts as an blockchain-based land title. Smart contracts enables ownership verification and allow land transfer only by the authorized owner.Land- related documents are stored using the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), ensuring data integrity and decentralized storage. The proposed system ensures security, transparency and tamper proof while allowing ownership transfer. Experimental implementations and evaluation of implementations establish that the system effectively prevents duplicate land titles, fake ownership of property , and resale of already sold land. The solution provides a scalable and reliable approach for modernizing land registry systems using decentralized technologies.
