Notice to Pay Rent or Quit - Alaska

NOTICE TO QUIT — NONPAYMENT OF RENT

ALASKA RESIDENTIAL RENTAL

The Alaska Court System lists Form CIV-725 for nonpayment notices. Compare this notice to the court's current form before use. State unpaid rent separately from late fees, interest, utilities, damages, or other charges.

1. TENANT AND RENTAL UNIT

Date notice prepared: [DATE]

Tenant name(s): [TENANT FULL LEGAL NAME(S)]

Rental unit address:

[STREET ADDRESS]

[UNIT]

[CITY], Alaska [ZIP CODE]

2. VIOLATION — RENT OWED

You owe rent for the rental unit identified above.

The amount above is rent only. It does not include late fees or interest.

3. REMEDY AND DEADLINE

Pay the full amount of unpaid rent listed above by:

Deadline date: [DATE]

Deadline time: [TIME] ☐ a.m. ☐ p.m.

If the full unpaid rent is not paid by that date and time, the tenancy will terminate at that date and time. You are directed to quit the premises by the same date and time. If you remain in possession after termination, the owner may file a court action to recover possession.

The rent-cure deadline must be at least seven days after written notice is given to the tenant under AS 34.03.220(b). If the notice is mailed, AS 09.45.090(c) adds three days when calculating the earliest date of unlawful holding by force for a court action; it does not change the seven-day cure period stated in this notice.

If you pay the full amount of rent listed above before the deadline, you do not have to move because of this notice.

If you do not pay the full rent amount or move by the deadline, the owner may seek possession through a forcible entry and detainer court case after any additional time required by law. A landlord cannot lawfully remove a residential tenant without a court order.
