Alaska Lease Amendment
Change rent, term, or occupants without rewriting the Alaska lease. Unchanged deposit-return and habitability duties stay in force.
- All parties on the original lease should sign.
- A month-to-month change still needs proper notice.
- Do not use an amendment to skip Alaska Stat. § 34.03.070.

Frequently asked questions
Plain-language answers about Alaska amendment papers. LeaseGen.io is not a law firm. Confirm current statutes before anyone signs.
- What is a lease amendment?
- A lease amendment is a short writing that changes specific terms of an existing lease — rent, end date, occupants, pets, or parking — without rewriting the whole contract.
- Do both parties have to sign an amendment in Alaska?
- Yes. An unsigned draft does not change the lease. Keep the original lease and attach signed amendments so the full agreement is clear later.
- Can an amendment waive deposit-return rules?
- No. A landlord may not demand prepaid rent and a security deposit totaling more than two months’ rent (Alaska Stat. § 34.03.070). If the tenant gave proper notice, unused deposit is generally due in 14 days; otherwise 30 days. Itemize deductions. An amendment cannot strip away mandatory Alaska landlord-tenant protections.
