Private residential leases used as a primary residence and falling within the applicable law must be registered with the Housing Authority.
The official guidance states that the owner registers the lease online within 30 days from the commencement date.
Registration requires an account or electronic identification, details of the parties and property, and the signed contract or required supporting information.
Termination of a registration is an administrative record and should not be confused with lawfully terminating the underlying contractual relationship.
Before recording termination, confirm the effective date, reason and any evidence or agreement required by the portal.
Both landlord and tenant should retain the registration confirmation and any termination documentation.
Users should follow the current portal instructions because forms and workflow may be updated.
