Tenancy agreement: do I necessarily have to include the landlord's ID?

Hello, I hope you are doing very well. For the accommodation section, in the case of signing a lease contract with a private individual, are the lease contract and the rent receipt sufficient as proof? Or do I necessarily need to add the landlord’s identity document? Thank you. Best regards.

Hello @Credo_Dandjinou On paper (the list of official documents provided by the embassies), the landlord’s ID is not requested, but in practice, if you can add it, you should do so. Generally, when you sign a lease agreement with an individual (natural person), it is recommended to include the landlord’s ID in the rental contract documentation. This may be necessary for identity verification purposes of the property owner.

Best regards!
