    An instrument is a document containing copies of all the legal documents that were lodged in the Land Registry in relation to a transfer, mortgage etc. It would typically contain a copy of the Transfer deed with any relevant maps, a copy of the mortgage, various declarations made by the parties to the transfer. The number of the relevant instrument is recorded on the folio. There is a fee of 40 euro to obtain a certified copy of the instrument from the Land Registry.

    Thanks for your advice, I'm also presuming that a copy of the title deeds are sent with the contracts also
