Document background
The Ending Lease Agreement Letter is a crucial document in Swiss property law, used to formally communicate the intention to terminate a lease arrangement. This document must comply with the Swiss Code of Obligations and relevant cantonal regulations, which set specific requirements for notice periods and formal communication methods. The letter should be used whenever either a landlord or tenant wishes to terminate a lease agreement, whether at the end of a fixed term or during an indefinite period. It must include essential information such as property details, termination dates, and handover arrangements. The format and content of this letter are particularly important in Switzerland, where rental laws strongly protect both parties' rights and require strict adherence to formal procedures.
