The Tenancy Agreement Form is a vital legal document used in the Philippines for establishing a formal landlord-tenant relationship in both residential and commercial property rentals. This document is essential for compliance with Philippine property laws, particularly the Rent Control Act and relevant provisions of the Civil Code of the Philippines. It should be used whenever a property owner (landlord) intends to lease their property to a tenant, whether for residential or commercial purposes. The agreement covers crucial elements including rent amount, payment terms, security deposits, maintenance responsibilities, utilities, property use restrictions, and termination conditions. It provides legal protection for both parties and ensures clarity in their respective rights and obligations. The document must align with local government requirements and may need registration with appropriate authorities depending on the jurisdiction within the Philippines.
