Document background
A Flat Vacating Notice is a crucial document in Australian residential tenancy law that provides formal notification from a tenant to a landlord or property manager about their intention to end their tenancy and vacate the property. This notice must comply with state-specific residential tenancy legislation regarding notice periods and required information. It typically includes the intended vacation date, property details, tenant information, forwarding address, and any relevant circumstances affecting the termination. The document is essential for both fixed-term and periodic tenancies and must be provided within the legally required notice period, which varies by jurisdiction and tenancy type. A properly completed Flat Vacating Notice helps protect both tenant and landlord rights and initiates the process for property inspection, bond return, and tenancy conclusion.
