Frequently Asked Questions

Is rent agreement registration mandatory in Pakistan?

Yes, under provincial tenancy laws, rent agreements should be registered with the Rent Controller. Unregistered agreements have limited legal protection.

What if the tenant doesn't vacate after agreement ends?

The landlord can approach the Rent Controller for eviction proceedings under the applicable Rent Restriction Ordinance.

Is rent increase automatic after 11 months?

No, rent increase requires mutual agreement for renewal. The rent escalation clause provides a framework for increase if parties agree to renew.
