Updated RTA tenancy agreement forms (Forms 18a, 18b and R18) will be available to download from 1 September 2025 to align with the Queensland Government’s changes to the Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Regulation 2025. Learn more.
These forms were developed by the Residential Tenancies Authority (RTA) to help providers and residents meet their obligations under the Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008 (the Act). In most instances, the Act specifies where an approved form must be used. The RTA strongly advises that, where possible, the approved form be used. However, if you cannot obtain a copy of a form when an approved form is needed, the Acts Interpretation Act 1954 allows for a person to use their own forms provided they are substantially the same as the approved form.
Important: Users of RTA forms should ensure they are accessing the latest published versions found below. The date a form was published is to the right of the form name. Remember: using incorrect forms may result in a breach of tenancy laws.
Tip: Download these forms as an Adobe PDF (download Adobe Reader for free) and save to your desktop or a folder before opening and editing the form. If you choose to edit this form in your web browser, please note that some web browsers won't save your information.
