Landlord entry & access

Except in an emergency or where it’s impracticable, a Rhode Island landlord must give the tenant at least two days’ notice of the intent to enter and may enter only at reasonable times (R.I. Gen. Laws §34-18-26(c)). That’s longer than the 24 hours most states require.

The landlord may enter without consent in an emergency, or during a tenant absence of more than seven days if reasonably necessary to protect the property (§34-18-26(b)). The tenant can’t unreasonably refuse entry to inspect, repair, supply services or show the unit (§34-18-26(a)), and the landlord can’t abuse the right of access to harass the tenant.

Month-to-month (or other period under a year)	30 days
Year-to-year	3 months before the end of the occupation year

Lease violations — A written notice specifying the breach and the cure, giving the tenant 20 days from mailing to remedy it and setting a termination date at least 21 days after mailing (§34-18-36).
Seniors — A tenant aged 65 or older may end the lease to move into assisted living or elderly housing; termination takes effect no earlier than 45 days after the first rent due date following written notice (§34-18-15(e)).
Military — A servicemember who enters service or receives orders for a permanent change of station or deployment of 90+ days may end the lease with written notice and a copy of the orders; a monthly lease ends 30 days after the next rent due date (§34-18-15(f)).
Survivors of abuse — Under the Survivor Early Lease Termination Act (2026 S 2291 / H 7199, signed June 18, 2026), a tenant who is a survivor of domestic violence, sexual assault or stalking may end the lease early by written notice with qualifying documentation and a move-out date within 30 days, without early-termination penalties.
