- • Full names of all tenants and the rental property address
- • The landlord’s name and mailing address
- • The exact termination date by which the tenant must vacate
- • Service at least 30 days before the effective date (Tex. Prop. Code § 91.001)
- • A certificate of service recording how and when the notice was delivered — courts routinely ask for this
