Example

Example: a buyer of a let flat in Salvador gives the tenant 90 days to leave

Mark Davies, British (fictitious), bought a flat in Salvador that was let to a tenant; the purchase was registered on 12 August 2026. On 20 October 2026, 69 days later, he chooses “I bought the let property (90 days)”, fills in his details, the tenant’s and the address Rua Exemplo, 100, apto 302, Barra, Salvador/BA, the registration date 12/08/2026, and leaves the days empty.

  1. The facts say he bought the property let to the tenant, with the purchase registered on the property record on 12 de agosto de 2026, and that he ends the lease as buyer under art. 8 of Law 8.245/1991.
  2. The empty deadline takes the legal minimum for this ground: “no prazo de 90 (noventa) dias contados do recebimento desta”, with rent, utility bills and charges paid up to the handover.
  3. Typing 60 days is refused: on this ground the tenant has at least 90 days. Typing 120 is accepted.
  4. Had he waited, the form would refuse the notice from 11 November 2026: a buyer has 90 days from registration to end the lease, and this window closed on 10 November 2026.

notificacao-desocupacao.pdf: the notice to vacate in Portuguese, ending with the eviction action (ação de despejo, art. 5) if the flat is not handed back in time, Mark’s signature and the “Ciente” receipt for the tenant. He has it served through a cartório or by registered post with a return receipt.

How it works

  1. Choose the ground: extended lease, over five years, commercial lease, purchase of a let property, or a free loan.
  2. Fill in your details, the tenant’s or occupant’s, and the property’s address.
  3. The deadline starts at the legal minimum; you may give more, never less.
  4. Download, sign and deliver it through a registry office, by registered post with a return receipt, or by hand.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the tenant have?
30 days for a home lease extended without a term (art. 46, § 2), for one running over five years (art. 47, V) and for a commercial lease without a term (art. 57); 90 days for a buyer, who must give notice within 90 days of registering the purchase (art. 8).
What if the person lives there for free?
That is a comodato, not a lease. After the notice runs out the occupant owes a rent the owner sets (Civil Code art. 582) and faces an action to recover possession.
What if more than 90 days have passed since I registered the purchase?
The form will not make the notice on that ground. Brazilian tenancy law gives a buyer 90 days from registering the purchase to end the lease, and after that presumes the buyer agreed to keep it (art. 8, § 2). The message names the day the window closed: for a purchase registered on 12 August 2026, that was 10 November 2026.
Can I give more time than the law requires?
Yes. Type the number of days in “Days to leave”: more than the minimum is always accepted, fewer is refused with the article that sets the minimum (30 or 90 days). For a free loan (comodato) the law sets no minimum; left empty, the notice gives 30 days.
Is what I type uploaded?
No. The PDF is made in your browser and nothing you type leaves your device.
Is this legal advice?
No, it is a form.
