The Vacate Apartment Letter is an essential document in Philippine residential tenancy relationships, required when a tenant plans to end their lease and move out of a rented property. Under Philippine law, particularly the Rent Control Act of 2009 and the Civil Code of the Philippines, tenants must provide proper written notice of their intention to vacate. This document serves multiple purposes: it formally communicates the move-out date, protects the tenant's rights regarding security deposit return, and helps maintain clear documentation of the lease termination process. The letter should be used whenever a tenant plans to end their tenancy, whether at the natural conclusion of the lease term or in cases of early termination, and must include specific details such as property information, vacation date, and forwarding address for security deposit return.

1. Date and Contact Information: Current date and complete contact information for both tenant and landlord

2. Property Details: Full address and unit number of the rental property being vacated

3. Notice Statement: Clear statement of intention to vacate the property

4. Vacation Date: Specific date when the property will be vacated

5. Security Deposit: Request for security deposit return and forwarding address for deposit

6. Final Inspection: Request for move-out inspection and proposed timing
