Sending a document to the TAL

Régie du logement or TAL: what's the difference?
None: it's the same tribunal. The Régie du logement became the Tribunal administratif du logement on August 31, 2020. The old name “régie du logement” is still widely used, and in English the TAL is often called the Quebec rental board, the rental tribunal or the housing tribunal, but every recourse, form and office now falls under the TAL.
Before filing an application: the demand letter
In most housing disputes, first giving the other party a chance to fix the situation shows your good faith. That's what the demand letter (mise en demeure) is for: a formal letter which, when made, must be in writing under article 1595 of the Civil Code of Québec, and which sets out the facts, your request and a sufficient deadline to comply. You can start from our free demand letter template and send it by certified email with proof of receipt.
