Moving out

You must give notice at least one calendar month before moving out. The notice period will be the month following the month in which you give notice. For instance, if the notice is given in April, you will still be responsible for the rent in May. The apartment should be available for the new tenant as of 1st June.

Please open and print out the relevant form here, and post it to TOAS stating the notice date. The deposit will be returned only providing that the necessary forms have been filled in correctly and clearly, to avoid any discrepancy in interpreting the numbers. Please note that you need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view the form.

TOAS will send a written confirmation on receipt of the notice. If you do not receive such a confirmation, please contact TOAS immediately.

When moving from one property to another within TOAS, you must always remember to give notice on your current property before moving. The notice period is one calendar month as dictated by the law on residential letting. In practice this means that the tenant will still be responsible for paying the rent for the month following giving notice.

However, if the tenant begins the rental of a new property in the month following giving notice on their previous property, TOAS will not charge rent for both properties. The notice period can in such cases be shortened.

The accommodation office may give the new tenant your telephone number if you have given it on your notice to enable them to contact you. We hope that this will be agreeable to you.
