The basis of the civil status of the parties to the lease agreement in Syria is considered and the rights and obligations of the landlord and tenant in law. In the conclusion of the work, a conclusion is made about the need for further development of civil legislation in Syria and refusal to apply the old socialist laws, and the need to set exceptional rules that protect tenants in the reality of the Syrian crisis.
