Document background
The Eviction Removal Letter is a crucial legal document used in Philippine property management when a landlord needs to terminate a tenancy and require the tenant to vacate the premises. This document must comply with the Philippine Rent Control Act (RA 9653), Civil Code provisions, and local housing regulations. It is typically used in situations involving lease violations, non-payment of rent, property sale, or owner occupancy requirements. The letter must include specific elements mandated by Philippine law, such as proper notice periods (typically 30 days for residential properties), clear grounds for eviction, and detailed property information. The document serves as both a formal notice and potential evidence in legal proceedings if the tenant fails to comply. Special considerations must be given to protected tenants and specific local government requirements, making it essential to draft the letter with careful attention to legal compliance and procedural requirements.
