Rent agreement

It is important to make a rent agreement in writing[1] with the renter when renting an apartment. You will need to be well acquainted with the terms of the agreement, such as rules on insurance, notice and more.

Forms for rent agreements in Icelandic, English, Spanish and Polish can be found on the websites of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Social Security

 (www.felagsmalaraduneyti.is) and the Multicultural and information Centre (www.mcc.is). Rent agreements can also be found at the offices of municipalities and the Housing Financing Fund (www.ils.is).
