Tell us about a change of tenant

Landlords are responsible for Council Tax payments in between tenancies. You must notify us when occupancy changes. If you do not, you will continue to remain liable for Council Tax.

Please complete this form if you are a landlord or managing agent in Richmond and wish to inform us of a change of tenants at your property.

If you are a tenant, tell us you're moving to update your Council Tax. This helps us keep your details up to date.

You will need

  • Landlord details (name, address, contact details)
  • Property details (address, furnished or unfurnished)
  • Tenant details (name(s), forwarding address)
  • Tenancy start/end date
