What are the procedures and documents needed to issue an eviction notice?

Dear Questioner,

You will not be able to move into the apartment until March 2025, as the eviction notice requires a 12-month notice period.

If you were to send the notice in June 2024, he would be required to vacate the apartment by June 2025.

The procedure involves going to the notary public and drafting an eviction notice for personal use. If the tenant does not speak Arabic; the notice must be in both Arabic and English.

The fees are approximately one thousand dirhams.

The required documents include the lease agreement, ownership deed, your ID card, and the tenant's ID card if available.
