The ban on fees charged by landlords and letting agents in Wales will be introduced in September, after it received Royal Assent.
From 1 September 2019, agents and landlords will no longer be able to charge fees to set up, renew or continue a standard occupation contract except those explicitly permitted by the Bill.
Many landlords may not yet be familiar with standard occupation contracts, but they will replace assured shorthold tenancies when the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016 is introduced – possibly later this year.
