Idaho Code §§ 6-301 to 6-324 § 6-323
SERVICE OF NOTICE TO LANDLORD.
Operative Text
The notice required by section 6-320(d), Idaho Code, shall be served either: (1) By delivering a copy to the landlord or his agent personally; or (2) If the landlord or his agent is absent from his usual place of business, by leaving a copy with an employee at the usual place of business of the landlord or his agent; or (3) By sending a copy of the notice to the landlord or his agent by United States Postal Service certified mail, return receipt requested.
Idaho Code § 6-323 establishes the specific methods by which a tenant must deliver a required notice to a landlord under § 6-320(d). The rule recognizes three valid delivery channels: personal hand-delivery to the landlord or their agent, leaving a copy with an employee at the landlord's usual place of business when the landlord or agent is absent, or sending the notice via USPS certified mail with return receipt requested. The method chosen determines whether the notice is legally effective, so the manner of delivery carries real procedural weight.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Idaho Code § 6-323, landlords and their agents should be aware that tenants have a defined set of methods for delivering the notice required by § 6-320(d). A compliant operator typically maintains a known, accessible place of business and ensures that employees are available to receive documents when the landlord or agent is not present. Keeping clear records of any notices received—whether in person, through an employee, or by certified mail—supports an accurate account of when and how notice was given.

Idaho Code § 6-323 sets out the exact delivery methods a tenant must use when serving the notice required by § 6-320(d) on a landlord. Tenants generally document whichever method they use—personal delivery, delivery to an employee at the landlord's place of business, or USPS certified mail with return receipt—so there is a verifiable record that proper service occurred. If a dispute arises over whether notice was properly served, tenant-rights organizations or legal aid resources can help explain how § 6-323's requirements apply to a given situation.
