House or plot name approval

The owner or owners of the plot, when the plot is newly registered, when a court divides it, or when its name is to change.

If the plot has more than one owner, all of them make the request together: list the other owners in the form and attach their ID card copies and their signed consent.

• Whatever language a name comes from, it must not conflict with Maldivian culture or Islam.
• At least 3 names must be proposed.
• A proposed name must not be too similar to names already approved.
• The Latin spelling must match how the name is written and said in Dhivehi.

The form is void if any information given is false, if the form is incomplete, or if any document that must be submitted with it is missing.

• A copy of any document stating the meaning of the name, if there is one.
• ID card copies of the owners submitting the form. Your own identity comes from your eFaas login, so attach only the other owners' copies.

The Council will confirm the fee.

On paper every owner signs the form. Online, upload the other owners' signed consent; the Council may ask them to sign at the office.

The name approval letter, or the Council's reply, is handed to the person named in the form.
