The civil code provides that the lessor has the obligation to present the statement of charges in particular by article 1728ter. This article mentions that:
“fees and charges must be mentioned in a separate account”.
The lessor is obliged to send a different and detailed account of the charges so that the tenant is able to verify the charges which are actually incumbent upon him. The tenant is entitled to request supporting documents from his lessor concerning the rental charges at the time of the annual adjustment.
Some apartments are located in a building with several apartments with a single person to manage it. In this case, the tenants have the possibility of consulting the documents at the head office of the manager.
