The Residential Tenancies Act 2004 sets out the fees to be charged by the Private Residential Tenancies Board (PRTB) for the registration of a tenancy and it also provides that the PRTB may adjust the fees charged, having regard to changes in the value of money. The fees provided for in the Act are €70 for the registration of a tenancy within one month of the commencement of the tenancy; €140 for the registration of tenancy later than one month after the commencement of the tenancy; and €300 for the registration of several tenancies within the same property and within one month of the commencement of the tenancies.
The PRTB has decided, having regard to changes in the value of money, to increase the above fees to €90, €180 and €375 respectively for all tenancies commencing on or after 1 January 2011.
