To end a month-to-month tenancy in Utah, the owner must serve notice to quit at least 15 calendar days before the end of the rental period (Utah Code 78B-6-802(1)(b)(i)). A tenancy at will ends on at least five calendar days' notice, and fixed-term leases simply expire without notice.
Utah Code 78B-6-802(1)(b)(i) makes a periodic tenant an unlawful detainer if the tenant stays after the period ends where the owner, '15 calendar days or more before the end of that month or period, has served notice requiring the tenant to quit.' For a tenancy at will, 78B-6-802(1)(b)(ii) requires 'a notice of not less than five calendar days.' A fixed-term lease 'shall be terminated without notice at the expiration of the specified term' (78B-6-802(1)(a)). Utah has no separate termination statute setting a longer period; the 15-day periodic-tenancy notice controls, and either party uses it to end a month-to-month arrangement. The Fit Premises Act also lets a renter terminate when the owner fails to deliver possession or correct a deficient condition.
No specific statutory penalty. Holding over after a valid 15-day (or 5-day at-will) notice makes the tenant an unlawful detainer subject to eviction under Title 78B, Chapter 6, Part 8, with possible treble damages under 78B-6-811.
