For tenants
If you are telling the owner or agent that you intend to leave, start with the Form 13 calculator. It asks why the tenancy is ending, whether the agreement is fixed or periodic, how the notice is served and which date you plan to use.

For owners and property managers
Form 12 does not have one universal notice period. The selected ground, agreement type and service timing all matter.
