Free French rent receipt (quittance de loyer)
Enter the month and the amounts: the receipt fills itself in, ready to print or save as PDF.
Empty if everything was paid. An amount below the total gives a partial-payment receipt.
The receipt appears here as soon as the rent is entered.
What French law says
- Rent and charges shown separately: that is the only item the law requires. Names, the property address and the period show which payment the receipt relates to.
- Free, as soon as the tenant asks for it: no fee for the receipt or the rent notice may be billed to the tenant. Without a request, the law does not require a monthly receipt.
- Partial payment: a reçu, not a quittance. It shows the amount paid and what is still due; this template switches to it as soon as the amount received is below the total.
- By email, with the tenant’s consent: the law requires express consent for electronic delivery. Without it, email delivery is not provided for.
