Maryland Notice of Entry

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

Landlord entry & access

Since October 1, 2025, a Maryland landlord must give at least 24 hours’ written notice stating the date, approximate time and specific purpose of the entry, and may enter only between 7:00am and 7:00pm, Monday through Saturday, unless the tenant agrees in writing to another time (§8-221). Notice can be mailed with a certificate of mailing, posted on the door, or sent by email, text or tenant portal if the tenant has opted in.

Permitted purposes are repairs and improvements, inspections, showings to buyers, lenders, tenants or contractors, government-ordered work, and protecting the property and occupants. No notice is needed in a genuine emergency. A tenant who reports a housing-code violation must give the landlord access within 24 hours (§8-221(f)).
