The Subletting Tenancy Agreement is essential when a tenant in Malta wishes to sublet their rented property to another party. This document is particularly relevant in situations involving temporary relocations, student housing, or when tenants need to share accommodation costs. The agreement must align with Malta's Private Residential Leases Act and requires explicit permission from the head landlord. It includes crucial details such as the property description, rental terms, maintenance responsibilities, and the relationship between all parties involved. The document must be registered with the Housing Authority and comply with specific Maltese legal requirements, including minimum lease periods and mandatory provisions. This type of agreement is commonly used in urban areas like Valletta, Sliema, and St. Julian's, where rental properties are in high demand among both locals and expatriates.
