Document background
An Eviction Notice From Landlord is a crucial legal document in Swiss property law used when a property owner or their representative needs to formally terminate a lease agreement and require tenants to vacate the premises. The document must strictly comply with Swiss federal legislation, particularly the Code of Obligations (OR/CO), and specific cantonal requirements. It can be used in various situations including non-payment of rent, property damage, major renovations, or the landlord's urgent personal need for the property. The notice must be served using official cantonal forms and include mandatory information about notice periods, grounds for termination, and the tenant's legal rights. Given Switzerland's strong tenant protection laws, the document must be carefully prepared to ensure legal validity and enforce ability.
