The TA6 Form:Understanding and mitigating knotweed risk
The Law Society’s amendment to the Explanatory
Notes accompanying the TA6 conveyancing form
changed in 2020. In order for a seller to tick “No” to
the Japanese knotweed question, they must be
certain that no rhizome (root) is present in the
ground of the property, or within 3 metres of the
boundary, even if there are no visible signs above
ground.
