Indiana Notice to Pay Rent or Quit Template
What a Indiana notice to pay rent or quit must include under Indiana law, and a fill-in draft that follows those rules.
Use the official form if there is one
What Indiana law requires
At least 10 days' notice, unless the parties agreed otherwise or the tenant pays in full within the notice period. Statutory form that may be used: date; 'To (tenant): You are notified to vacate the following property not more than ten (10) days after you receive this notice unless you pay the rent due on the property within ten (10) days: (description of property)'; landlord's name. Service: on the tenant; if the tenant cannot be found, on a person residing at the premises (the server must explain the notice's contents); if no one is found, by affixing a copy to a conspicuous part of the premises. No notice is required if the lease expressly requires rent in advance and the tenant fails to pay it.

Fill-in draft
Replace every [bracketed] item. If your state or city requires specific wording, a specific form, or a translated version, that requirement controls over this draft. Courts dismiss eviction cases over defective notices — if anything is unclear, talk to a lawyer.
