Land administration systems (LASs) are developed to support land policies in dealing with land management issues. Given this role, flexible approaches to land administration (LA) are adopted, particularly in developing countries as a remedy to limitations in local resources capacity for systems development. While models have been developed to evaluate LASs of different societal contexts, a framework that can assist developing countries to evaluate effectiveness of land policies through any method adopted for LA design remains not exhaustively answered. Therefore, this research aims to develop a framework that can assist analysing effectiveness of land policies and their supporting LASs in developing countries. To realise the research objective, data were gathered from literature and data collected from field. A case study design was used for a comparative insights analysis. Qualitative data analysis was made on processes of land policy making through LAS development, and quantitative data analysis was made on figures related to how processes of LAS development are undertaken. The findings show that a formulation of a land policy and its implementation through the design of flexible approaches to LA are not sufficient criteria to evaluate effective land policy making. The effectiveness of land policy would be evaluated on how policy goals are achieved through any adopted method of LAS development within available resources capacity. Hence, this research suggests that to realize effective land policy making, an analysis of each policy process stage should be performed including how land information from LASs is potentially used to respond to policy goals
