As a result, the payment for the service of notification about encumbrance was reduced from 10 manats ($5.9) to two manats ($1.2), the service of changing the notification was reduced from six manats ($3.5) to one manat (6 cents) and finally, the service of submitting a confirmed report on paper about the search results was reduced from six manats ($3.5) to one manat (6 cents), respectively.
