Rhode Island Eviction Notice

Rhode Island uses a 5-day rent notice and a 20-day cure notice under the Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. This generator builds a written Rhode Island eviction notice (pay-or-quit, cure-or-quit, end-of-term, or unconditional quit) around those deadlines. It is not a court summons, and it is not permission to change the locks.

• Nonpayment notices are often 5 days.
• A 20-day notice is typical for a curable noncompliance (§ 34-18-36).
• This notice does not start a court case. If the tenant stays, file in the proper court and have the papers served.
