Document background
The Eviction Notice From Landlord (Kündigung des Mietverhältnisses) is a crucial document in German property law, used when a landlord needs to legally terminate a tenancy agreement and require the tenant to vacate the property. It must be issued in accordance with the German Civil Code (BGB), particularly Sections 543 (extraordinary termination) or 573 (ordinary termination), depending on the circumstances. The notice must include specific legally required information, such as the grounds for termination, notice period, and vacation date. This document is particularly important as German law provides strong tenant protections, making it essential that the eviction notice meets all formal requirements to be legally enforceable. The notice must be in written form and should be carefully drafted to avoid any legal challenges that could delay or invalidate the eviction process.
