Which documents should my landlord be giving me?
A gas safety certificate where there's gas, an EICR, an EPC, the Renters' Rights Act information sheet, your agreement and the deposit prescribed information.
For a let in England, the paperwork you should expect to see includes:
- Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) — annually, where the property has gas appliances.
- Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) — at least every five years.
- Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) — a property should normally be rated E or better to be let at all.
- Renters' Rights Act Information Sheet — setting out your rights, given before the tenancy is agreed. This replaced the old How to Rent guide from 1 May 2026.
- Your tenancy agreement.
- Deposit protection prescribed information — which scheme your deposit is in and how to get it back.
Everything your landlord has uploaded appears under Your documents, listed by what each one is and when it expires rather than by filename.
Worth knowing: This is a description of the usual position in England, not legal advice. If something is missing, ask your landlord — and if you don't get anywhere, Citizens Advice or Shelter can help.
