How much notice must a landlord give to end a tenancy in Utah?
In Utah, a landlord must give 15 days written notice to end a tenancy or decline to renew it. This is Utah Code § 78B-6-802.
| What | Utah |
|---|---|
| Notice required | 15 days |
Notes
Fifteen calendar days' notice before the end of the period ends a month-to-month tenancy — shorter than almost anywhere else. Nonpayment: three calendar days to pay or surrender, and paying the rent together with any late fee the lease specifies within those three days saves the tenancy. No entry-notice period or rent-increase notice period is published here.
