About this service

The Residential Tenancies (Safer Spaces for Victims of Domestic Violence) Act allows for victims of family violence to end a residential tenancy agreement without financial penalty.

To do this, tenants must get a Certificate Confirming Grounds to Terminate Tenancy, and use it to give at least 28 days' notice to their landlord. The tenant is still required to pay rent during the notice period.

Tenants can request a certificate if:

  • they are named on a rental agreement with a landlord
  • their safety, or the safety of a dependent child or dependent adult in the home, is at risk if the tenancy continues
Who can use it?

Individual named under landlord agreement and have concern for their safety
