Last updated: Thursday, 30 July 2026 | Rāpare, 30 Hōngongoi, 2026

Pātaka Whenua is the definitive source of information relating to Māori land. Managed by the Ministry of Justice, it replaced Māori Land Online (MLOL).

Pātaka Whenua is the online portal that holds the Māori Land Court electronic record, including minutes and orders. Through Pātaka Whenua, users can search and access Māori land information, including ownership, trustee, memorial and block information for land that falls within the jurisdiction of the Māori Land Court under Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 and other relevant legislation.

Pātaka Whenua can also be used to make enquiries and file applications with the Māori Land Court from anywhere, at any time.
