Document background
The Eviction Letter, formally known as a Notice of Termination in Ireland, is a crucial legal document used to initiate the formal process of ending a residential tenancy. It must be drafted in strict compliance with the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 and subsequent amendments, with different requirements applying based on the duration of the tenancy and grounds for termination. The document is required whenever a landlord wishes to legally terminate a tenancy, whether due to rent arrears, property sale, family occupation, or other valid grounds recognized under Irish law. The notice must include specific statutory information, appropriate notice periods, and in some cases, statutory declarations. Failure to include all required elements or follow proper procedures can invalidate the notice and delay the eviction process.
