    It is two months for a landlord (which could be served now as long as it doesn’t expire before the fixed term). [For landlord notice see herehttp://www.landlordsguild.com/possession-notice-guidance).

    A tenant wouldn’t normally need to give notice to leave on the last day of the term (this may depend on the terms of the tenancy). The tenant has no right to give notice / leave during the fixed term. Once the tenancy goes periodic after the term, the tenant must then give at least a month to expire the day before the rent is due (or the day the rent is due) assuming the rent is monthly. See this article for tenants notice.
