How to write a rent receipt
A rent receipt is the tenant’s proof that rent was paid, and the landlord’s record for the books. It should state the period covered, the amount, how it was paid, and whether anything is still outstanding — clarity here prevents end-of-tenancy disputes.

Frequently asked questions
What should a rent receipt include?
The tenant and landlord names, the property, the rental period, the amount and how it was paid, plus the date and a receipt number. Stating the period and any balance protects both sides if there’s ever a dispute.
Do I have to give a tenant a rent receipt?
In many places landlords must provide one on request (and for cash payments it’s essential). Even where it’s not required, a receipt is good practice and keeps your records clean.
