Fill in the eviction notice template Kansas landlords serve
The notice a landlord serves before filing for unpaid rent.
The month or period the rent was for.
In Kansas, the 3-day notice to pay rent gives the tenant 3 days. Paying the full amount inside the period stops the eviction, by statute.
K.S.A. 58-2564(b): The three days are three consecutive 24-hour periods from delivery or posting, plus two days if the notice is mailed. Paying within that time stops the termination.
Every field is optional; a blank one prints as a line to write on. The notice is in English, as it is served in the US.

What the statute says about unpaid rent
The three days are three consecutive 24-hour periods from delivery or posting, plus two days if the notice is mailed. Paying within that time stops the termination. (K.S.A. 58-2564(b))
What the statute says about a lease violation
The lease ends no sooner than 30 days after receipt unless the tenant remedies the breach within 14 days. A repeat of the same or a similar breach after that allows a 30-day notice with no chance to cure. (K.S.A. 58-2564(a))
Delivery

The statute names these ways to deliver it (K.S.A. 58-2564(b); K.S.A. 61-3803). Fill in the proof of service on the notice the day you do it.

The questions that follow.
What goes in a {abbr} eviction notice template?
The name Kansas law gives it (3-day notice to pay rent), the tenants and the premises, the rent owed or the breach, the days the tenant has and how they are counted, the statute, your signature and a proof of service. The generator above puts each of them in.
Is there a free {state} eviction notice template?
Yes, this one: fill it in above and download it in Word or PDF. Nothing is stored and nothing is sent; it is built in your browser.
When does a {days}-day eviction notice {state} landlords serve run out?
Count 3 days from the day after it is delivered: delivered on November 1, 2026, it runs out at the end of November 4, 2026. Any extra days Kansas adds for mailing are in the statute’s note on this page.
Can I download a {days} day eviction notice {state} template as a PDF?
Yes. Choose PDF or Word above; the 3 days, the way they are counted and K.S.A. 58-2564(b) are already in it.
Can the tenant stop the eviction by paying?
Yes. Paying the full rent owed within the 3 days stops it, by statute (K.S.A. 58-2564(b)).
How do I serve an eviction notice in {state}?
Kansas statute names these ways (K.S.A. 58-2564(b); K.S.A. 61-3803): leaving a written copy with the tenant; leaving a copy with a person over 12 residing on the premises; posting in a conspicuous place on the premises if no such person is found; mailing to the tenant at the premises (two extra days allowed).
What happens after the notice runs out?
If the tenant is still there, you file a eviction (forcible detainer) in the district court, under the code of civil procedure for limited actions. Our guide to the Kansas eviction process walks through each step.
Can I change the locks instead?
No. Kansas bans lockouts and utility shut-offs (K.S.A. 58-2563); only a court can order a tenant out.
Not legal adviceThis notice is filled in from Kansas statutes as read on November 1, 2026. A city or county can add requirements, a lease can give more time, and only a court decides whether a notice was valid. For a contested eviction, speak to a lawyer licensed in Kansas.
