When it comes to ending a tenancy, the length of notice required varies depending on the duration of your tenancy. This crucial information can help both tenants and landlords plan for the future and ensure a smooth transition.
Here’s a breakdown of the notice periods based on the length of your tenancy:
| Length of Tenancy | Notice Required by Landlord |
|---|---|
| Less than 6 months | 90 days |
| 6 months or longer but less than 1 year | 152 days |
| 1 year or longer but less than 7 years | 180 days |
| 7 years or longer but less than 8 years | 196 days |
| More than 8 years | 224 days |
It’s essential to note that these notice periods have been in effect since 6 July 2022, following changes introduced under the Regulation of Providers of Building Works and Miscellaneous Provisions Act 2022. Being aware of the appropriate notice period can help tenants and landlords navigate the process of ending a tenancy with clarity and compliance.
