How many days' notice do I have to give?

It's set by your state and sometimes your city — commonly 3, 5, or 14 days for non-payment and 30–60 days for a no-fault month-to-month termination, but the exact figure and how you count the days vary widely. Check your state's landlord-tenant statute or your local court's self-help page before serving. AttachKit fills the notice; it doesn't pick the legal deadline for you.

Does serving this notice evict the tenant?

No. The notice gives the tenant a chance to pay or cure, or sets the move-out date. If they don't comply, you still have to file an eviction (unlawful detainer) case with the court and get a judgment — a landlord can't legally remove a tenant or change the locks without one. This template is the first step, not the whole process.

How do I have to deliver it?

Most states specify the allowed methods — personal delivery, posting on the door plus mailing, or certified mail — and an improper service method can invalidate the notice. Follow your state's service rules and keep proof of how and when you served it.

Is this legal advice?

No. AttachKit is a private fill-and-sign tool, not a law firm. Eviction rules are local and unforgiving of paperwork errors; for a contested case or anything unusual, consult a landlord-tenant attorney or your court's self-help center.

Fill an eviction notice online — free template

An eviction notice is the written warning a landlord must serve before starting a court eviction — most commonly a "pay rent or quit" notice for unpaid rent, a "cure or quit" for a lease violation, or a "notice to vacate" to end a month-to-month tenancy. The notice itself isn't an eviction; it's the legally required first step, and a defective notice (wrong cure period, missing details) is the single most common reason a judge throws an eviction case out. AttachKit fills the recurring property, landlord, and tenant fields from your saved profile so the notice you serve is clean and consistent.

Who needs it: Landlords and property managers starting the eviction process for non-payment, a lease breach, or a month-to-month termination — and anyone who needs the notice to be accurate before serving it.
