No. Existing qualifying tenancies automatically became periodic tenancies from 1 May 2026, so a new tenancy agreement was not required simply because of the change in law.
Tenants should have been provided with the government’s ‘Tenants’ Information Guide’, explaining the changes and how they affect their tenancy.
The legislation does not require existing written tenancy agreements to be reissued.
