The Mutual Agreement To End Tenancy is a critical document used in Switzerland when both landlord and tenant voluntarily agree to terminate their existing lease arrangement. It's particularly relevant when parties wish to end a tenancy outside the standard notice periods or before a fixed-term lease expires. This document, governed by Swiss federal law (primarily the Code of Obligations) and relevant cantonal regulations, provides a structured framework for documenting the agreed termination terms, protecting both parties' interests. It typically includes specific provisions for property handover, final utility readings, deposit return, and settlement of any outstanding matters. The agreement is essential for maintaining clear records and preventing future disputes, especially important given Switzerland's robust tenant protection laws and formal property management requirements.
