Notice period for the owners' meeting in Latvia

Short answer

Each apartment owner and the manager must be invited to the community's general meeting at least seven days in advance, in writing or in another way set by the community. The invitation states the place, the time, the agenda and the conditions for taking decisions.

What the law says

Original wording of the law (Latvian). The summary and the notes around it are ours.

Uz dzīvokļu īpašnieku kopsapulci ne vēlāk kā septiņas dienas iepriekš rakstveidā vai citādā dzīvokļu īpašnieku kopības noteiktajā kārtībā uzaicināms katrs dzīvokļa īpašnieks, kā arī pārvaldnieks. Uzaicinājumā norāda kopsapulces norises vietu, laiku, darba kārtību un lēmumu pieņemšanas nosacījumus.

What this means in practice

The law also sets an order of channels for invitations to meetings and surveys: e-mail first, then the official electronic address, and a letter to the correspondence address only if the owner has neither, and finally the address of the apartment. Owners must give current contact data (phone, e-mail, correspondence address), in the Building Information System (BIS) or to the manager, and are deemed reachable at what they supplied.

General information, not legal advice. Check with a lawyer in Latvia before relying on it, and read your building's own documents: they can change how a rule applies.

Where Unitify fits

Unitify sends announcements and meeting notices to residents and keeps a record of what went out and when. Whether a notice is valid, in its channel, deadline and content, depends on the law above and on your own rules. Unitify does not make a notice valid.
