Permitted payments for tenants

Under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, the only payments we can ask tenants for in connection with an assured shorthold tenancy are:

Holding deposit: no more than 1 week's rent, to reserve a property.

Security deposit: no more than 5 weeks' rent where the annual rent is under £50,000, or 6 weeks' rent where it is £50,000 or more. Deposits are protected in a government-approved scheme.

Rent: as set out in your tenancy agreement.

Changes to the tenancy at the tenant's request: up to £50 (inc. VAT), or reasonable costs if higher.

Early termination at the tenant's request: the landlord's loss and reasonable costs of re-letting.

Late payment of rent: interest at 3% above the Bank of England base rate, for rent more than 14 days overdue.

Lost keys or security devices: the reasonable cost of replacement.

Utilities, communication services, TV licence and council tax, where the tenant is responsible under the tenancy.
