Document background
The Room and Board Agreement serves as a legally binding contract under German law, designed for situations where both accommodation and meal services are provided to residents. This document is commonly used in student housing, senior living facilities, corporate housing, and similar residential service settings. It combines elements of traditional residential lease agreements with specific provisions for food services, ensuring compliance with German Civil Code (BGB) requirements for tenancy and relevant food service regulations. The agreement comprehensively covers room specifications, meal plan details, payment terms, maintenance responsibilities, and house rules, while incorporating necessary consumer protection provisions and data privacy requirements under German law. This type of agreement is particularly important when offering all-inclusive living arrangements where the provision of meals is an integral part of the service offering.
