Indiana Late Rent Notice

This Late Rent Notice is built with Indiana as the governing state. These are the Indiana landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

Indiana rules at a glance

Indiana rules for a Late Rent Notice
Late fees	No statutory cap; set by the lease
Nonpayment notice	10 days, unless the parties agreed otherwiseIC 32-31-1-6
Nonpayment	If rent isn’t paid when due, the landlord may terminate with at least 10 days’ notice, unless the parties agreed otherwise or the tenant pays in full before the notice runs out (IC 32-31-1-6).

Rent, late fees & rent increases

Late fees — Indiana has no statutory late-fee cap or mandatory grace period. The fee must be in the lease, and an excessive fee risks being struck by a court as an unenforceable penalty rather than a reasonable estimate of the landlord’s loss.
Rent increases — Unless a written rental agreement provides otherwise, a landlord must give the tenant at least 30 days’ written notice before modifying the rental agreement — which includes raising the rent (IC 32-31-5-4). Rent under a fixed-term lease can’t change mid-term unless the lease allows it.
Rent control — Cities, towns and counties may not regulate rental rates on private property — and may not regulate screening, deposits, applications, lease terms, disclosures or landlord fees either — unless the General Assembly authorizes it (IC 32-31-1-20).

Ending an Indiana tenancy

A general tenancy occupied with the landlord’s consent is treated as month-to-month (IC 32-31-1-2), and a periodic tenancy of three months or less ends on notice equal to the interval between rent periods — one month for a monthly tenancy (IC 32-31-1-4).

Notice to end an Indiana tenancy
Month-to-month (either party)	One rental periodIC 32-31-1-4
Tenancy at will	1 month, in writingIC 32-31-1-1
Year-to-year	3 months before the year endsIC 32-31-1-3
Nonpayment of rent	10 daysIC 32-31-1-6

Nonpayment — If rent isn’t paid when due, the landlord may terminate with at least 10 days’ notice, unless the parties agreed otherwise or the tenant pays in full before the notice runs out (IC 32-31-1-6).
Survivors — A tenant protected by a civil protection order or criminal no-contact order may end the lease on 30 days’ written notice with a copy of the order — and, for a victim of domestic violence or sexual assault, a safety plan from an accredited program, dated within the prior 30 days, that recommends relocation — owing only rent prorated to the termination date (IC 32-31-9-12).
Military — Servicemembers with qualifying orders may terminate under the federal SCRA (50 U.S.C. §3955).

Indiana Late Rent Notice FAQs

Is there a cap on late fees in Indiana?

No. Indiana has no statutory late-fee cap or required grace period. The fee should be written into the lease and kept reasonable — courts can refuse to enforce a fee that operates as a penalty.

How much notice is required to evict for nonpayment in Indiana?

At least 10 days’ notice, unless the parties agreed otherwise; paying in full before the notice expires stops the termination (IC 32-31-1-6).
