                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

CERTIFICATIONS OF RECORDATION UPON COPIES OF CERTAIN INSTRUMENTS AND SUBSEQUENT
RECORDATION IN OTHER COUNTY OR CITY (§ 55.1-608)

Whenever a mortgage or deed of trust instrument upon real or personal property
located in more than one county or city is recorded in one such county or city,
the party by whom it is so presented may deliver to the clerk of such court any
number of executed and acknowledged copies of such instrument. The clerk shall
fix to each such copy his certificate of recordation, certifying thereby the
payment of the recordation tax levied by the Commonwealth, and shall return to
the party presenting all such instruments all such copies except one, which
shall be retained by the clerk for recordation in his office. Such certificate
shall be conclusive evidence of the payment of the recordation tax indicated
thereby, and the clerk in any other recording office in any other county or city
shall accept for recordation in his office any such copy so certified.
