Early cancelation of Tenancy agreement

Post by nosferatu » Thu, 07 Jun 2012 12:53 am

I need help...

My working visa expires before the end of my tenancy agreement. Will I be able to rent my current place without permit? If not, what should I do?

:???:

Thank you so much!

You are not allowed to stay in Singapore without valid visa. If your working visa expires and you don't get an SVP in time, you have to leave the country.
However, you will still have to fulfil your obligations from the tenancy agreement and, if there is no clause allowing early termination, you have to continue paying the rent even if you cannot stay there. After all, your visa problems are not the landlord's fault and thus he/she shouldn't be disadvantaged by it.
Of course you can talk to the landlord and try to get a mutually acceptable compromise.

If I get a pass after a month or two, do I have to inform the land lord?

There is no legal "grace period".
