Everything you need to know to make sure you can leave your tenancy smoothly
AI summary
To end a periodic tenancy, you must provide at least 28 days' written notice to your landlord. This notice must be signed and include the property address and tenancy end date.
Ending a fixed-term tenancy early is not usually possible unless you have a written agreement with your landlord, assign the tenancy to a suitable replacement, or in specific cases like family violence. The Tenancy Tribunal may also grant an early termination for severe hardship.
