✅ Types of Lease Agreements (Bhade Karar)
1. Land Lease Agreement (เคญाเคกेเคชเค्เคा)
- The land is owned and recorded in the 7/12 extract in the owner’s name.
- It is leased to another party for a fixed period such as 5, 10, 15, or 20 years.
- Commonly referred to as giving land on lease or on Bhadepatta.
- Registration is mandatory for the full term of the lease.
๐ Used for: Farming, commercial use, infrastructure development.
2. Leave and License Agreement (for Shops/Flats/Hotels)
- Applicable for residential flats, shops, hotels, offices, etc.

❓ What is a Lease Agreement (Bhade Karar)?
A Lease Agreement is a legal contract between the owner (landlord) and the tenant.
It allows the tenant to use the property for a specific period and under certain conditions.
- Can be Notarized (for short term) or Registered (for long term).
- Clearly outlines usage terms, rent, responsibilities, and termination conditions.
๐ฏ Why is a Lease Agreement Important?
Major Benefits for the Owner:
- Avoids future property disputes.
- Ensures smooth repossession of property.
- Prevents unnecessary legal issues or court cases.
⚠️ Without a lease, if a tenant stays for over 4-5 years, they may claim ownership rights.
The landlord may have to prove ownership in court, which is time-consuming and risky.
๐ Ideal Duration for a Lease Agreement
There are two standard durations:
- Notarized Lease – Valid for 11 months
- Registered Lease – For leases over 1 year (2, 3, or 5 years)
✅ If you are leasing a commercial shop or space for more than 1 year, registration is mandatory.
๐ Notarized vs Registered Lease – Which is Better?
| Duration | Type of Agreement | Recommended Use |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 11 months | Notarized | For short-term lease |
| More than 1 year | Registered | Safer for long-term legal security |
๐ก For land, shop, or commercial spaces leased long-term, registered agreements are highly recommended.
