You can report a lease by visiting or reporting it on the Internet.

Who should be reporting it?
The lease reporting obligation exists for both the lessor and the lessee of the contracting party. However, if you submit and report the original lease contract, you do not need to prepare a separate joint report (Article 6-2 (1) of the Act, Article 2-2 (5) of the Rules), so it is recommended that one of the parties submit the original lease contract.
