Information Sheet

Yes. The requirements apply to both new tenancy agreements and existing tenancies.

For all new tenancies starting on or after 1 May 2026, prescribed information must be provided to tenants before the tenancy is entered into, usually within the tenancy agreement.

For existing tenancies, the official Government Information Sheet must be issued.

No. The document must be the exact version provided by the Government and cannot be amended or replaced.

Failure to serve the Information Sheet correctly and within the required timeframe may result in significant penalties.

Penalties can be up to £7,000 for an initial breach and up to £40,000 for continued non-compliance.

We are issuing the official Government Information Sheet to all existing tenants, tracking compliance across our systems, and ensuring every tenancy is handled in line with the correct requirements.
