The Renters’ Rights Act Information Sheet
You now have only 5 days left to issue the Information Sheet before 31.05.26
You will no doubt be aware from previous communications that landlords who have existing tenancies that started before 1 May 2026 and already have a written record of the tenancy terms, need to send their tenants the Renters’ Rights Act Information Sheet 2026. This explains how the tenancy may have been affected by the reforms. It has been published online and is available for download.
Landlords have until 31 May 2026 to send this to all their tenants, either electronically as an attachment or on paper, or they will face a fine of up to £7,000.

Guide 1 – Before starting a tenancy
Guide 3 – When you or your landlord want to end your tenancy
