Can the tenancy agreement be terminated as of the end date of the minimum term? Or does the period of notice need to be added on after the end date of the minimum period?

The period of notice doesn’t need to be added on after the end date. The tenancy agreement states the date on which it may be terminated. Example: the tenancy agreement gives the end date of 30 April and a period of notice of one calendar month applies. In this case, notice needs to be given no later than 31 March for the tenancy agreement to end on 30 April.
