The End of Tenancy Notice is a crucial document in German property law, used to formally terminate a rental agreement between landlord and tenant. It must strictly comply with the German Civil Code (BGB), particularly sections 568 and 573c, which specify form requirements and notice periods. This document is essential when either party wishes to end the tenancy relationship, though landlords face more stringent requirements and must provide legally valid reasons for termination. The notice must be in written form with an original signature, contain specific information about the property and termination date, and observe mandatory notice periods (typically three months for tenants, potentially longer for landlords depending on the tenancy duration). The document serves as legal proof of the intention to terminate and initiates the process of property handover.
