Form N11: Agreement to End the Tenancy

What this form is generally used for, common scenarios and the key timing concepts. Always download the current form and instructions from the Landlord and Tenant Board.

The N11 records a mutual agreement between the landlord and tenant to end the tenancy on a specific date.
Both parties must agree voluntarily. A tenant can't be required to sign one as a condition of renting.
No minimum notice period applies. The date is whatever both sides agree.
If the tenant doesn't move out, the landlord can generally apply to the Board based on the agreement.

What the N11 is for

Form N11 documents that both sides have agreed to end the tenancy and on what date. It's often used when a tenant wants to leave earlier than 60 days' notice would allow, or as part of a negotiated move-out.

Common scenarios

A tenant needs to relocate quickly and the landlord agrees to an early date.
A negotiated agreement, sometimes with compensation, for a tenant to move out.
Wrapping up a tenancy cleanly when both sides want certainty.

It must be voluntary

An N11 signed as a condition of getting the unit, or under pressure, may be void. Give the tenant time to read it, and a copy once signed.

If the tenant doesn't move out

The landlord can generally apply to the Board using Form L3 based on the agreement. The Board decides whether to issue an eviction order.

Common questions

Is there a minimum notice for an N11?

No. The date is whatever both sides agree to.

Can a tenant withdraw from an N11?

It's a binding agreement once both sign. Changing it generally requires both parties to agree.

Can I include money in the agreement?

Parties sometimes agree on compensation. Record any terms clearly in writing.

Do both tenants need to sign?

Generally all tenants on the tenancy should sign.
