Information Sheet — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Renters' Rights Act Information Sheet?

It's a mandatory document that explains tenants' rights under the Renters' Rights Act 2025 — including their right to challenge rent increases, request repairs, and keep pets. The government published the official template on 20 March 2026.

When do I need to provide it?

For existing tenants: by 31 May 2026. For new tenancies: before or at the start of the tenancy. The deadline applies to all private rented sector landlords in England.

What's the fine for not providing it?

Up to £7,000 per tenancy (starting penalty £4,000). If you have 5 properties, that's up to £35,000 in fines. Local authorities enforce this.

Where do I get the official Information Sheet?

It's available as a free PDF on GOV.UK. The full title is 'Written information that must be given to tenants — landlord guidance'. We link directly to it from this page.

Do I need to provide it for each property?

Yes — every tenancy needs its own copy. If you have an HMO with 4 separate tenancy agreements, that's 4 copies. Keep proof of delivery for each one.

What other deadlines should I know about?

31 May 2026 has three key deadlines: (1) provide the Information Sheet, (2) register on the new Landlord Register, and (3) join the Ombudsman scheme. All carry significant fines.
