Just to add for others: the process is slightly different in each city. In Bangalore you can do it online through the Karnataka police portal, while in Mumbai and Delhi the local police station form is still commonly used. Always keep a copy of the acknowledgement receipt it protects the landlord if any issue arises later. Also, many societies now insist on police verification before giving possession, so it’s better to complete it before the tenant moves in.

Landlords can begin tenant verification by filling out a form that includes the tenant's name, permanent address, photograph, and government ID proof, attached with a copy of the rent agreement. They can do the submission online via the state police citizen portal or app, or in person at the nearest police station. After checking the information, the police provide the landlord with an acknowledgement receipt. Below, I have shared in detail how to apply for tenant verification.

What are the Steps to Complete Tenant Verification?

  1. Collect the Details: Note the tenant's full name, permanent address, contact number, occupation, and details of a reference person.

  2. Keep the Documents Ready: Arrange the tenant's photograph, Aadhaar or another government ID, address proof, and a copy of the rent agreement.

  3. Choose the Mode: Use the state police citizen portal or app, or visit the local police station in person.

  4. Fill the Form: Enter the landlord, tenant, and property details accurately in the verification form.

  5. Submit the Application: Upload the documents and submit the form online, or hand it over at the station.

  6. Cooperate with Police: Officers may contact the tenant or visit the property to confirm the information provided.

  7. Save the Acknowledgement: Keep the receipt or confirmation issued after submission for future reference.

Why is Tenant Verification Important for Landlords?

Verification gives landlords documented proof that they exercised due care before renting out the property. If a tenant is later linked to a crime or a dispute, the police record helps the landlord avoid being drawn into the matter. It also screens out impersonation and false identities. Landlords who ignore local police orders on tenant registration may face fines or legal action, depending on the state.
