If you are a landlord with privately rented property which is let out on a domestic tenancy in Wales you are legally required to register with Rent Smart Wales in order to comply with the law.
Domestic tenancies are Standard Occupation Contracts under the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016.
If you carry out management activities at your property you must apply for a Rent Smart Wales Licence or appoint a licenced agent to conduct letting and management activities at the property on your behalf.
If you are carrying out letting or management activities on behalf of a landlord under the act you need to apply for an agent licence and complete approved agent training.
An agent could be an individual or organisation, a spouse, a family member or friend of the landlord or a commercial agent.
