A Wyoming 30 Day Notice To Vacate is a letter that complies with state legal requirements to terminate a tenancy. This notice terminates all periodic tenancies (e.g., week-to-week or month-to-month), or a fixed-term lease, as well as an expired lease or a situation with no written lease. The non-terminating party must receive this notice at least thirty (30) calendar days before the date of termination.
When To Use a Wyoming 30 Day Notice To Vacate
A Wyoming 30 Day Notice To Vacate terminates the following types of tenancy:
- A fixed-term lease
- Any periodic tenancy (e.g., week-to-week or month-to-month)
- An expired lease
- A rental with no written lease where the tenant pays rent on a monthly basis
Some types of Wyoming lease termination notice may allow different reasons for termination, or different notice periods. This may also apply to an eviction notice issued because of a lease or legal violation.
There are no statutes in Wyoming regarding lease termination. It is best practice to refer to the rental agreement for the required notice period to terminate the agreement. If there are no provisions regarding lease termination, then typically this 30 Day Notice To Vacate is sufficient for either party.
How To Write a Wyoming 30 Day Notice To Vacate
To help ensure the legal compliance of a Notice To Vacate:
- Use the full name of the receiving party, and address of record, if known
- Specify the termination date of the lease or tenancy
- Fill in the full address of the rental premises
- Provide updated/current address and phone number information
- Print name and sign the notice
- Complete the certificate of service by indicating the date and method of notice delivery, along with printed name and signature
It is easy to lose an otherwise justified legal action because of improper notice. Check carefully to ensure enough time after notice is delivered, not when it’s sent.
How To Serve a Wyoming 30 Day Notice To Vacate
Wyoming does not have strict legal requirements for delivery of a standard (non-eviction) lease termination notice. Written notice is preferred in all cases. Hand delivery to the receiving party is likewise preferred, although delivery by registered or certified mail is also an option which makes proof of delivery easy for recordkeeping purposes.
Mailed notice extends a notice period by (4) calendar days, to account for variable delivery times.
