30 Day Notice to Vacate Florida
Overview of the Florida 30-Day Notice to Vacate
15. The Florida 30-Day Notice to Vacate is used when a landlord or tenant ends a month-to-month rental agreement. Unlike the 3-Day Eviction Notice Florida (for unpaid rent) or the 7-Day Notice Florida (for lease violations), this notice is not based on tenant misconduct. Instead, it provides written notice that the tenancy will not continue beyond the next rental period.
As of July 1, 2023, Florida law requires at least 30 days’ written notice to end a month-to-month tenancy. This timeframe allows both parties to prepare for move-out, renew with new terms, or transition to another property.
