Rental application documents checklist
Organise your rental application: confirm the permitted documents, prepare readable copies and share them with the right recipient.

CONFIRM WHAT IS NEEDED
- Request the list of documents expected for the application
- Check which requested documents are permitted under local rules
- Confirm who will receive and review the application
- Confirm the submission deadline
- Ask which file formats and sizes are accepted
- Check whether a guarantor is needed for your situation

PREPARE THE COPIES
- Gather the permitted identity document requested
- Gather the permitted evidence of your current situation requested
- Gather the permitted income evidence requested
- Ask any guarantor to prepare only the permitted documents requested
- Check every page is complete and readable
- Name files clearly so the recipient can identify each document

SHARE AND FOLLOW UP
- Check the final folder contains no unrelated personal files
- Check the recipient’s contact details through a known channel
- Share the requested copies with an expiring private link, for example using [DocBunker](https://docbunker.app/en)
- Keep a record of the documents sent and the sending date
- Confirm the recipient can open the submitted files
- Revoke the sharing link when access is no longer needed
