Document background
An Agreement to Lease is a crucial document in Danish property transactions, serving as a binding commitment between parties to enter into a formal lease agreement under specified terms and conditions. This document is typically used when parties have agreed on key commercial terms but require a period before the formal lease begins, often due to property modifications, permit requirements, or other conditions that need to be satisfied. The Agreement to Lease provides security for both parties while these preliminary matters are addressed, setting out clear obligations and timelines. Under Danish law, particular attention must be paid to compliance with the Danish Lease Act and Business Lease Act, especially regarding deposit requirements, rent regulations, and notice periods. This document forms part of the broader leasing transaction documentation and often references additional documents such as the final lease agreement, condition reports, and technical specifications.
