Landlords and letting agents must carry out right to rent checks on people before entering into a tenancy agreement with them to make sure they are allowed to rent.

You should use this guidance to find out:

  • why you need to do a right to rent check
  • letting arrangements that fall within the scheme
  • when to carry out initial checks and follow-up checks
  • what documents are acceptable for a manual right to rent check
