Functional Group TO

X12F Finance Subcommittee

This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents for the Real Estate Title Insurance Services Order (265) Transaction Set for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. The transaction set can be used by a real estate agent, mortgage lender, or other real estate company to order, update, or cancel title services from a title insurance services company. This standard can also be used by the title services company to return title information to the party originating the order. This transaction set replaces the paper forms used to request services such as title searches and insurance, and replaces mortgage closing documents.
