When should I pay my rent?
It's the first time I have to pay the apartment rent myself and I have some doubts about when should I pay it. The lease states:
... at the latest of the 5th working day after the commencement of the tenancy in the 30 days rhythm ...
I moved to this apartment on March, 18th, so I'm not sure whether I should consider the 30 days rhythm starting from that day or from the 1st of each month.

This is a question for your landlord. We can interpret the sentence as well as you, but they’re the one whose expectation you need to meet.

Just ask your landlord and agree on a date with him. From the way the sentence is worded, I'd assume you are expected to pay on the 23rd, but really, there is no reason not to give your landlord a call to make sure.

FWIW - landlords give a 5 day grace period, but paying on the very last day, treating that as the "due date", is frowned upon.

And not to forget, you pay when the money arrive on the account of the landlord, not when you make the trasfer ;)

Nitpick - Assuming this is 2019, would the fifth working day be the 25th (Monday) and not the 23rd (Saturday)?
