To end a periodic tenancy, you must give your landlord at least 28 days' written notice. This notice must include the address, tenancy end date, and your signature.
Ending a fixed-term tenancy early requires agreement with your landlord, assigning the tenancy to a new tenant, or in specific cases like family violence. For severe hardship, you can apply to the Tenancy Tribunal. The government plans to reduce the notice period for periodic tenancies to 21 days.
