To provide effective and efficient services to its clients, the Guyana Lands and Surveys Commission (GLSC) set up offices in all the regions with the exception of Region 5 and 8.

The reason why there is no GLSC Office in Region 5 is because most of Lands are privately owned lands and those that are not privately owned lands are under the control of the Mahaica-Mahaicony-Abary/ Agri-Development Authority (MMAADA). In Region 8, most of the land is under the control of the Guyana Forestry Commission and the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission, however, the GLSC also managed the lands that do not fall into these categories.
