How to pay the bond in Tasmania
The bond paid by the tenant must be paid directly to Rental Deposit Authority (RDA). It is illegal to receive and hold the bond money in their own account.
Payments and lodgements can be made by the tenant at any Service Tasmania shop.
Alternatively, a bank cheque or money order can be posted to the Rental Deposit Authority at the following address:
Rental Deposit Authority
PO Box 56, Rosny Park TAS 7018
Upon lodging the bond, the tenant will receive several receipts.
It is important to keep the receipt as it contains a bond number, which will be needed when claiming the bond back.
The RDA holds the money until the end of the tenancy.
