The Fixed Tenancy Agreement is a crucial legal document used in Malaysia to establish and regulate fixed-term rental arrangements between property owners and tenants. It is essential for both residential and commercial property rentals, providing a clear framework for the landlord-tenant relationship. The agreement typically includes detailed terms covering rent payment, security deposits, maintenance responsibilities, and specific conditions of use. It must comply with Malaysian property law, including the National Land Code 1965 and relevant state-level regulations. This document is particularly important as it provides legal certainty for both parties by clearly defining the fixed duration of the tenancy, which distinguishes it from periodic tenancies. The agreement requires proper stamping under the Stamp Act 1949 to be admissible in Malaysian courts and should incorporate all necessary provisions to protect both landlord and tenant interests throughout the specified tenancy period.
