Yukon 2026 rent index calculator
Estimate the 2.6% cap for rent notices served before December 1, 2026.
Check your dates
This is an amount benchmark, not a deadline or proof of valid notice.
Worked example under the earlier 2026 cap
At $1,500 monthly rent, 2.6% is $39. The illustrative maximum becomes $1,539 for an ordinary capped notice served before December 1, 2026. The calculator rounds the increase down to whole cents so it cannot show more than 2.6%.
For a notice served November 20, check the 2.6% cap, the old three-month notice period and twelve-month spacing, and any approved above-index exception. The calculation alone does not validate the rent increase or notice.
Do not use this as a cap for new December notices
Yukon Bill 8 received assent November 5 and takes effect December 1, 2026. From then the government says the ordinary cap is removed, but a new rent-increase notice must provide six months' notice, while the once-per-year restriction remains. This tool deliberately calculates only the older capped benchmark.
Read the assent announcement and use the notice-date planner for timing.
