California 30 Day Notice to Vacate is a notice that tenants must serve to their landlords to inform them that they intend to move out of their rental unit or property within 30 days. It is also referred to as a 30-Day Notice of Termination of Tenancy. This notice is applicable to tenants who rent residential property in the state of California. It must comply with California’s state laws and be served in accordance with the requirements set out in Civil Code § 1946. There are two types of California 30 Day Notice to Vacate: 1. Fixed-Term Leases — This type of notice is used when a tenant has a fixed term lease, and they wish to move out before the end of the lease term. 2. Month-to-Month Leases — This type of notice is used when a tenant has a month-to-month lease, and they wish to move out within 30 days. The California 30 Day Notice to Vacate must be in writing, and must include the following information: 1. The full name of the tenant(s) 2. The address of the rental unit or property 3. The date the notice is given 4. The date the tenant intends to move out 5. A statement that the tenant is terminating the tenancy 6. A statement that the tenant has given the landlord reasonable notice of their intention to move out 7. A statement that the tenant has all keys to the rental unit or property 8.
