Yes, if your contract calls for such reimbursement.

s a Franchise Attorney I agree with the other attorney answer. It depends on how your contract deals with this issue. If it's silent, then it depends on how the parties agree. It's certainly not fair, as they're getting you to essentially pay to relocate, but not per se illegal. Consult with a good business or franchise attorney in your area for specific advice.
