The Addendum Rental Agreement Additional Tenant is a crucial document used in Swiss real estate practice when a new tenant needs to be added to an existing rental agreement. This situation commonly arises in cases of cohabitation, family changes, or when existing tenants wish to share their living space with additional occupants. The document ensures compliance with Swiss federal and cantonal laws, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations and tenant protection regulations.
