New Brunswick has no renter tax credit, so this is proof of payment, not a tax document for most tenants. Keep it for your records. This is a general template, not legal advice.

New Brunswick has no official rent-receipt form and does not require landlords to issue one. A recent receipt may be needed for the provincial rent benefit. That benefit asks for your name and address, the rent amount and date, and the landlord's name.

Rent receipts in New Brunswick

A rent receipt is simple proof that rent was paid. New Brunswick does not require landlords to issue one, and the province has no renter tax credit. So for most tenants it is a payment record rather than a tax document.

It is still worth keeping. You may need a recent receipt for the Direct-to-Tenant rent benefit (currently paused to new applicants), and a clear record helps both sides if a payment is ever questioned. Keep deposit receipts separate and clearly labelled.

Common questions

Does my landlord have to give me a rent receipt in New Brunswick?

New Brunswick does not require it, unlike some provinces. Even so, a receipt is useful proof of payment, and you may need a recent one for the provincial Direct-to-Tenant rent benefit, which is currently paused to new applicants.

Do I need rent receipts for taxes in New Brunswick?

New Brunswick has no renter tax credit, so for most tenants a rent receipt is proof of payment, not a tax document. Landlords should keep records of rent received for their own taxes.

What should a rent receipt include?

A good receipt covers the date, the amount, and the period it covers. It also names the rental address, who paid, who received it, and the payment method. This generator includes all of that, plus the amount written in words.
