Maryland law doesn’t specifically address subleasing. Whether Tenants can sublet depends on the terms of the lease agreement. A Landlord Consent Form may be needed to get written permission to sublet.

  • Carroll County: Up to 25 days
  • Frederick County: Up to 90 days
  • Garrett and Washington Counties: Up to 30 day.  ^[3]
