When to Choose a Guarantee with the Address Added Later in Najem Okazjonalny

We explain when it’s beneficial to arrange a guarantee with the address added later in a Najem Okazjonalny agreement: advantages, risks, and practical filing tips.

What is a “address added later” guarantee

A guarantee with the address added later is a document used in a Najem Okazjonalny agreement where, at the time of signing, no specific address is indicated for the tenant’s potential move-out. That address is entered later, once it becomes known. This option is often chosen when the tenant does not have a pre-agreed move-out location or it may change.

When this option can be useful

  • The tenant hasn’t decided yet on a future residence in case the lease is terminated.
  • You need to conclude the agreement quickly, and the guarantor’s address cannot be confirmed yet.
  • The guarantor is abroad and can provide the details only later.
  • Changes are planned in the residence of relatives who will act as guarantors.

Advantages of adding the address later

  • Flexibility — allows the contract to be signed without delays.
  • Ability to change the address — you can indicate the most up-to-date option later.
  • Suitable for long-term rentals where the tenant’s situation may change.

Drawbacks and risks

  • Additional formalities — without an entered address, the document does not have full legal effect.
  • Risk of delays — if the address isn’t added in time, eviction may become complicated.
  • Dependence on the guarantor — their consent and presence may be required to enter the address.

Frequently asked questions

Can the address be entered online?

In most cases, personal presence before a notary is required, but options with a power of attorney and remote document delivery may be possible.

Who can act as the guarantor?

Any legally capable person willing to provide their address as a potential residence for the tenant; in practice, a property owner.

Can the address be changed after it’s entered?

Yes, but a newly notarized document will be required.

Conclusion

A “address added later” guarantee is a convenient option when it’s not possible to indicate the address immediately. It’s important to enter it as soon as possible to ensure full legal protection for both parties.
