15% rent hike risks eviction in two cases
Law No. 164 of 2026 announced the implementation of the first annual increase of 15% on old rental agreements starting from September. The increase is calculated based on the actual rental value or the minimum specified according to the region, with regions divided into three zones with values ranging from 250 to 1000 pounds. Lease durations vary between 5 years for non-residential units and 7 years for residential units, with contracts automatically ending after these periods, except in cases of early eviction such as closing the unit for more than a year or if the tenant owns another suitable unit. Evictions before the end of these periods are prohibited except in specific cases, and social protection measures include giving tenants priority in obtaining alternative units provided by the state.
