Free North Dakota Eviction Notice Template

A North Dakota eviction notice is a written document landlords must give tenants before filing for eviction. It tells the tenant why the lease is ending, how long they have to pay rent, fix a violation, or move out, and follows timelines in North Dakota Century Code Chapter 47-32.

North Dakota law requires landlords to use the correct notice type depending on the situation. Use Document Genius to select the right one before creating your document.

• 3-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit (NDCC § 47-32-01): Used when tenants fail to pay rent on time. Gives them three days to pay in full or move out before the landlord can file for eviction.
• 3-Day Notice to Quit for Non-Compliance (NDCC § 47-32-01): Used for lease violations like property damage, unauthorized occupants, or illegal activity. Tenants have three days to fix the issue or leave the property.
• 30-Day Lease Termination Notice (NDCC § 47-16-07): Ends a month-to-month tenancy with at least 30 days’ written notice when there is no lease violation.

To complete your eviction notice properly:

1. Choose the correct notice type for your situation
2. Add landlord and tenant names plus the rental property address
3. Explain the reason for eviction if required
4. Include the legally required notice period
5. Sign and date the notice before serving it

Landlords can serve eviction notices by:

• Personal delivery to the tenant
• Mailing via first-class, registered, or certified mail
• Using a process server or law enforcement officer

Keep proof of service, as it may be required in court if the tenant does not comply.

If the tenant does not pay rent, fix the violation, or move out by the deadline:

• File an Eviction Summons and Complaint in the district court where the property is located
• Attend the eviction hearing on the date listed in the summons, which is between 3 and 15 days after the issuance of the summons
• If the court rules in your favor, request a Writ of Possession so law enforcement can remove the tenant if necessary
