Document background
The Extend Lease Agreement is a crucial document used when parties wish to continue their existing lease relationship beyond the original term under Dutch law. This document is typically employed when both landlord and tenant are satisfied with their arrangement but need to formalize the continuation of their relationship, potentially with updated terms. It references the original lease agreement while incorporating any necessary modifications to rent, duration, or other terms. The document must comply with Dutch Civil Code requirements and may be used for both residential and commercial properties. It provides legal certainty for both parties while avoiding the need to draft an entirely new lease agreement. The extension agreement can be particularly valuable in maintaining business continuity, securing long-term tenancy arrangements, and adapting to changing market conditions or party requirements.
