Certificate of Service N215

What is Form N215?

The Certificate of Service (N215) is a court form used to confirm that legal documents have been served on the relevant party in a court case. This form is particularly important when applying for possession of a property, as it provides proof that required documents, such as a notice seeking possession, have been properly delivered.

While many possession claim forms already ask for details about the service of the notice, courts often require Form N215 to be included as an additional confirmation.

When is the N215 Form Needed?

• When serving notice to tenants before applying for possession.
• When providing proof of service for legal documents in possession claims.
• If the court requests additional confirmation of service, even when other forms include this information.

How to Use This Form

You must complete Form N215 with details about:

• The date the documents were served.
• The method of service (e.g., by post, in person, or electronically).
• The recipient of the documents.
• The address where service was effected.
