Extraordinary Termination

Extraordinary termination means that a contract is ended immediately, without the usual notice periods. This can occur, for example, if a tenant fails to pay rent or if an employee commits serious breaches of duty.

For residents in Germany, it’s important to understand the reasons for extraordinary termination, as it is immediate and can have legal consequences. According to § 543 BGB, such termination can only occur under specific conditions. Mistakes in the termination process can lead to legal disputes.
