Prescribed Information Certificate
Essential tenancy deposit protection certificate
This certificate has been created to help your landlord or letting agent comply with their legal tenancy deposit protection obligations.
Your landlord or agent must provide you with key information about your deposit’s protection, called the Prescribed Information.
Please note, it is the landlord/agent’s responsibility to make sure it is completed accurately, served on the tenant(s) within 30 days of receipt of the deposit and that the tenant(s) have an opportunity to check and sign this document.
We recommend you read this certificate along with the mydeposits Information for Tenants leaflet, so you fully understand how deposit protection works. Download the certificate.
