What it costs to file.
Every province runs its own residential tenancy tribunal under its own name, with its own application fees. Ontario alone has more than a dozen application types at different prices — this shows one representative landlord fee and one representative tenant fee per jurisdiction.
British Columbia is the simplest: a flat $100 whichever party applies. Ontario's cheapest online tenant application is $48; its most common landlord application is $186 online.

Sources, read 24 September 2026: Ontario (tribunalsontario.ca, loaded directly), British Columbia (gov.bc.ca, Residential Tenancy Branch dispute resolution fees), Alberta (alberta.ca / eservices.alberta.ca, reflecting the fee change effective 1 April 2026), Manitoba and Quebec (each jurisdiction's own tribunal site). Saskatchewan, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, Newfoundland and Labrador and the three territories are shown with their tribunal's real name but no fee figure asserted — a primary fee schedule could not be independently loaded for them this session.
One representative fee per party, not every form
Most of these tribunals charge different fees for different application TYPES (eviction vs. compensation vs. maintenance, for example) and often a lower rate for filing online. The figures above are each jurisdiction's most commonly filed form, not an exhaustive fee schedule. Confirm the exact fee for your specific application on the tribunal's own site before filing.
