California Tenant Law & Prorated Rent Rules

In the State of California, residential rental agreements and California Civil Code Section 1946 govern partial-month calculations.

Daily Rate = (Monthly Rent × 12) ÷ 365

Prorated Total = Daily Rate × Days Occupied

Month-to-Month 30-Day Notice Rule

Under California Civil Code § 1946, when a month-to-month tenant delivers formal written 30-day notice on the 10th of the month, tenancy officially terminates on the 10th of the subsequent month. The tenant owes prorated rent exclusively for those 10 days.
