In Ireland, a landlord may generally give 7 days’ notice where the tenant’s behaviour is seriously anti-social, while 28 days’ notice may apply to other anti-social behaviour or a substantial breach of tenancy obligations. The shorter period is intended for serious cases and the notice must still comply with the Residential Tenancies Act, including required content and service rules. A landlord should consider the facts carefully and may wish to take legal advice. If challenged, the RTB’s dispute resolution process will determine whether the termination was valid.
