The Fixed Term Lease Rental Agreement is a crucial legal document used in Switzerland when establishing a definite-term rental relationship between landlords and tenants. It is designed to comply with Swiss federal law, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations (Articles 253-274), and relevant cantonal regulations. This agreement is appropriate when parties wish to establish a rental relationship for a specific, predetermined period, rather than an indefinite term. The document includes essential provisions required by Swiss law, such as precise property details, fixed rental period, rent amount, security deposit arrangements, maintenance responsibilities, and specific terms for termination. It's particularly useful for situations where the rental period is known in advance, such as temporary relocations, student housing, or specific-duration business needs. The agreement provides legal certainty for both parties while ensuring compliance with Switzerland's tenant-protective legal framework.
