Civ. Code art. 2728(2)). The rent increase notice below is preset for Louisiana: fill in your details, then print it or save it as a PDF.

    Notice to end a month-to-month tenancy

    Either party may end a Louisiana month-to-month lease with written notice given at least 10 calendar days before the end of the month (La. Civ. Code arts. 2728(2), 2729).

    Month-to-month: written notice at least 10 calendar days before the end of the month. Week-to-month periods: 5 calendar days before the period ends. Periods longer than a month: 30 calendar days. A lease with no stated term is presumed month-to-month.

    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.
