A REN Tag is an identification tag issued to Real Estate Negotiator (REN) issued by the Board of Valuers, Appraisers, Estate Agents & Property Managers (BOVAEP / LPPEH). It contains all the information including their name, photo, IC no, REN No, company name, company registration no, quick response code (QR) and security features. It is mandatory for this REN tag to be worn by the REN at all times during their conduct of business and the public is able to verify the information to ensure they are dealing with a registered Real Estate Negotiator.

Each registered Real Estate Negotiator will receive a tag bearing the photo and details of the negotiator. This tag is to be worn at all times during the course of doing business. Each registered Real Estate Negotiator will be given a registration number. The public will also be able to verify the details via the Board's website.
