A Rhode Island lease termination letter, or “Form DC-63”, allows a landlord or tenant to terminate a tenancy-at-will, so long as it is provided at least thirty (30) days ahead of the intended move-out day. Under State law, a landlord or tenant may cancel a month-to-month lease by sending written notice to the other party with at least thirty (30) days’ notice prior to the termination date. The receiving party will have no choice but to accept the terms of the letter.
Minimum Termination Period (Gen.Laws 1956, § 34-18-37(b)) – 30 days.
