Indiana eviction notice FAQ

How much notice does Indiana require for non-payment?

10 days (IC 32-31-1-1, 32-31-1-6). Your lease can require more notice than the statute, never less.

Can my lease change the notice period?

A lease can lengthen the period. Whether it can shorten it depends on the state β€” Indiana's rule is above; when the lease is silent, the statutory period applies.

How do I count the days?

From the day after delivery, and the notice should state the deadline as a date. Where Indiana counts business or judicial days, weekends and court holidays are skipped.

What happens after the notice expires?

You file the eviction in the local court. Filing before the notice period ends gets the case dismissed, so keep the delivery date.

Can I send it by email or text?

Only if the lease agrees to electronic delivery; otherwise use hand delivery, mail or posting where Indiana permits it. The in-app notice emails the tenant and logs it, and prints for hand delivery.
