    What Indiana requires

    Notice before a rent increase

    Unless a written lease says otherwise, an Indiana landlord must give at least 30 days' written notice before changing the rental agreement, including raising the rent (Ind. Code 32-31-5-4).

    Applies unless a written rental agreement sets a different notice period

    Notice to end a month-to-month tenancy

    An Indiana landlord can end a month-to-month tenancy with one month's written notice to the tenant; no statute sets the tenant's notice, though one month is the customary practice (Ind. Code 32-31-1-1, 32-31-1-4).

    Year-to-year tenancies: landlord notice not less than 3 months before the end of the year. Periodic tenancies of 3 months or less: notice to the tenant equal to the rental period. No statute sets the tenant's notice; 30 days is the customary reading (Indiana renters' handbook), recorded as tenantDays.

    Ind. Code 32-31-1-1, Ind. Code 32-31-1-2, Ind. Code 32-31-1-4 · checked October 27, 2026

    With 30 days' notice delivered on November 1, 2026, the earliest effective date the form accepts is December 1, 2026, and the example moves it to the first day of a month on or after that date. Indiana's rule above sets different terms in some situations, so set the form's notice period to the one that fits your tenancy.

    City and county rules can be stricter than state law, and your lease can require more than the statute does. Use whichever rule gives the tenant more time or protection.
