In 1402 Regnault was sent as Ambassador to Spain to persuade King Henry III to render obedience to the Pope at Avignon. In Feb 1405 he visited his brother Jean de Bethencourt at Grainville-la-Teinturière when Jean was home on a short visit from the Canary Islands. He was put in charge of the supply of bread in 1410 at Paris. In 1411 Regnault de Bethencourt (IV) was named captain of the guard of the castle of Longueville. In 1412 he received, in payment for his services, a house in Paris. In 1417 Regnault gave certain lands to his brother Jean (referred to in the grant as Lord of the Canaries).

In 1419 he pledged fealty to King Henry V of England after the English had conquered most of Normandy. On 11 May 1421 Regnault's goods were increased by the gift which Jean (IV) made him of all his personal fortune. He married Felipa de Troyes, daughter of Guillaume de Fayel and Marguerite de Chatillon, on 14 Jul 1422 at France. As vassal of the Kings of England and of France, he performed the duties of Chief Treasurer of Normandy (1423) and Commander of the night watch of the streets of Paris (1424), a duty which he lost when the city returned to the possession of the French in 1436. In 1425 he inherited all his brother's goods. On 6 Apr 1426 Regnault was granted the fief of Béthencourt as well as 500 libras from the revenues of the lands of Granville which were awarded to Aldonce de Bracquemont and her husband Pierre de Rouville. In 1428 Regnault (IV) ceded the lands of Béthencourt to Regnault (V) who was creditor of Jean (IV). In 1434 a certificate in Latin issued in Paris in favor of Reynaldo de Bettencourt by King Henry VI, King of England who held Paris at that time, refers to his brother as King and Lord of the Canaries. He died in 1443.
