How long can I sue for arrears in store rent?

If the landlord fails to pay the rent after the rent increase period expires, the arrears of store rent can be prosecuted.

If the tenant defaults on the rent, the landlord can give the other party a reasonable time to raise the rent. If the other party still fails to pay the rent at the expiration of the time limit, it may bring a lawsuit to the people's court, but attention should be paid to the limitation of action. If the limitation of action is exceeded, the people's court will not accept it.

If the rent is delayed or refused to be paid, the limitation period of action shall be 1 year.

The lessor shall claim the rights to the lessee within one year after the expiration of each agreed rent payment period. In fact, the lessor verbally claimed the rent, but the lessee denied this fact, and the lessor failed to provide evidence to prove that the court found that the rent claimed by the lessor had passed the statute of limitations and was in compliance with the law.

Therefore, it is suggested that the lessor should do the following work in case of rent arrears:

1. If the lessee pays the rent normally after defaulting on the previous period, the subsequent rent will be used to make up the rent in arrears in the previous period, and the rent receipt issued by the lessor shall record the corresponding rent period;

2. The lessor shall collect the rent within 1 year after the rent is in arrears, and keep the evidence, including collection by email, SMS, EMS, telephone recording, etc. It is best for the lessee to confirm the rent arrears in writing.
