As across Tamil Nadu, a letting is documented as a rent agreement and the tenancy must be registered with the Rent Authority under the Tamil Nadu Regulation of Rights and Responsibilities of Landlords and Tenants Act, 2017; the process is handled online through the TNREGINET portal, and 11-month terms remain common.
