Returning the key to the office

When you move out, the key should only be left at the housing office; do not leave the key in the apartment.  If the housing office is closed, then the key can be returned in a sealed envelope to the housing office’s post box.  The envelope should be clearly marked with the apartment’s address, your name, date and your signature.

Giving the key to the next tenant. Print the form here; giving the key to a new tenant and delivering it to the housing office.

The key must be returned at the latest, by the first working day following the last day of tenancy (by 12 noon). For keys returned late, a charge of 100 euros will be made at the beginning of every week that the key is late.

If when moving out a different key from that documented is returned, then a charge of 35 euros will be deducted from the deposit before it is returned.
