Where Can I Get a Tenancy Agreement Form in Ireland?

If you’re renting out a property or preparing to move in as a tenant, one of the first documents you’ll need is a tenancy agreement form — also known as a rental lease agreement. It’s the legal contract that defines the terms of the tenancy between the landlord and tenant, including rent, deposit, duration, and responsibilities.

At Property Vision, we help landlords and tenants across Ireland understand and complete this document correctly, because a well-drafted tenancy agreement protects both parties.

RTB Tenancy Agreement

What Is a Tenancy Agreement Form?

A tenancy agreement (or lease) is a legally binding document that sets out:

  • The names and addresses of the landlord and tenant(s)
  • The property address being let
  • The rent amount, payment frequency, and method
  • The deposit amount and conditions for return
  • The tenancy start and end dates
  • The maintenance responsibilities of both landlord and tenant
  • Any special conditions (for example, pet policies, smoking rules, or early termination terms)

This form ensures clarity from the start and provides a clear framework if disputes arise later. In Ireland, tenancies are governed by the Residential Tenancies Act 2004, and landlords must register their tenancy with the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB) within one month of the tenancy start date.

Where to Get a Tenancy Agreement Form in Ireland

If you’re wondering “where can I get a tenancy agreement form?”, the best and most reliable source is the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB) itself — the statutory body overseeing landlord and tenant relations in Ireland.

The RTB provides a free, official tenancy agreement form that meets all Irish legal requirements.

This document is updated periodically to reflect legislative changes — so always ensure you’re using the latest version. The linked version above is the December 2022 edition, still current as of 2025.

Why Use the Official RTB Tenancy Agreement?

Using the RTB’s official form ensures that:

  • Your lease complies with Irish tenancy law
  • The rights and obligations of both parties are clearly outlined
  • It includes all mandatory notices and statements (such as RTB registration and dispute resolution details)
  • It’s recognised by legal professionals, agents, and housing authorities

If you draft your own lease or use an outdated template, you risk leaving out essential clauses that could cause legal or financial issues later.
