Short-Term Rental Regulations by Country and City in 2026

This page is for hosts and managers who rent homes in more than one country or city, and for anyone about to buy or list in a new market. Rules kept moving in 2026. The EU's registration and data rules began to apply, Spain's Supreme Court struck down the national registry, Amsterdam halved its night cap in the center, and Ireland, France and England are building national registers with target dates.

For each region you get a table with the rule, the date it took or takes effect and the source we opened in October 2026, then what to do about it: register, show the number, collect the taxes and keep the records. You also get a night-cap calculator, a compliance checklist and text you can copy. This is a reference, not legal advice, so confirm anything that affects a booking, a purchase or a tax return with your local authority, lawyer or accountant.

What Changed for Hosts in 2026

Here's the year so far in date order. Each change has its row, date and source in the regional tables below.

• April 1: Amsterdam cut holiday rental in Centrum, Oude Pijp and Nieuwe Pijp to 15 nights a year, down from 30.
• May 19: Spain's Supreme Court annulled the national rental registry; rulings on May 21 and June 1 confirmed it.
• May 20: The EU short-term rental regulation began to apply.
• May 22: Mexico City's short-term rental registry went live.
• June 19: Maui's County Council approved hotel zoning districts that some condos can apply to join before the Bill 9 phase-out.
• September 3: England's Culture Secretary set March 2027 as the target for a national register.
• September: Greece announced no new registration numbers in central Athens and Thessaloniki through December 31, 2027.
• October 6: Ireland published its Short-Term Letting and Tourism Bill.

Rules Come in Layers

Most confusion comes from mixing up two kinds of rule. Registration rules give each home a number that platforms and officials can check. Use limits decide whether, where and for how many nights you may rent at all. A registration number shows you're on the list. It doesn't prove the use is allowed at that address.

Two more layers sit on top. Buildings have their own rules: in France, a co-owner who registers a furnished tourist rental must tell the building's managing agent, and new co-ownership rules must say whether such rentals are allowed (Service-Public). And taxes follow the booking, including bookings you take on your own website.

The EU Short-Term Rental Regulation

Regulation (EU) 2024/1028 was adopted on April 11, 2024. It covers short-term rental platforms and anyone who lists a unit on them. The European Commission describes the aim as more transparency and better data, so authorities can spot rental hotspots and rising prices.

Airbnb's Help Center says the regulation officially entered into application on May 20, 2026 (Airbnb). It is about registration numbers and data. Night caps, zoning and licenses are still set nationally, regionally or locally, as the tables below show. Hotels, hostels, camping grounds, and RV and trailer parks are excluded.

What Hosts Must Do

• Find out whether your area runs a procedure. The rules apply only where the member state, region or local area has set up a registration procedure. Where it hasn't, Airbnb says there is nothing to do yet.
• Get the number before you publish. In a registration area, a listing that isn't exempt needs its number before it can go live.
• Keep it accurate. Airbnb says hosts are solely responsible for the number and the details attached to it, and that it may act where a number looks incorrect, misused or invalid.

What Platforms Send to Authorities

Where a member state has asked for data and set up a Single Digital Entry Point, platforms send it every month: the unit's address and listing URL, the registration number, nights stayed, guests per night and, where required, the guests' country of residence. Plan as if your local authority can line that data up against your license, your night cap and your tax return.

What Member States Must Provide

Registration has to be online and, where possible, free or low-cost, with the number issued automatically and at once, documents accepted digitally and a way to appeal. If your country's process falls short of that, raise it with the authority in writing and keep the reply.

Europe Rules by Country and City

The table lists the rule that matters most in each place, its date and the source. Details and what to do follow the table.

Spain and Barcelona

Spain's Supreme Court annulled the parts of Royal Decree 1312/2024 that created the single national rental registry and its registration number, in a judgment dated May 19, 2026 and published in the Official State Gazette on June 8. Rulings dated May 21 and June 1, 2026 confirmed it (Pérez de Vargas). Two pieces survived: the digital single window that gathers platform data, and the platforms' duty to send monthly activity reports for each property, which are shared with regional and city authorities. Regional tourism registers are untouched, so your regional license and its number still apply.

Barcelona's mayor announced in June 2024 that the city will not renew its 10,101 tourist-flat licenses when they run out in November 2028. The basis is Catalan legislation of November 7, 2023 that limits tourist flats where housing is short and runs licenses on a five-year clock (Catalan News).

If you own a licensed flat there, current policy leaves about two years of tourist use. Use them to decide between selling, a long let or a mid-term rental model, and ask a local lawyer which stay lengths count as tourist use in Catalonia before you commit.

France and Paris

France's Le Meur law of November 19, 2024 has applied since January 1, 2025. The national online registration service for furnished tourist rentals is planned for the fourth quarter of 2026. Once it opens, registration becomes mandatory in every commune, and anyone holding a number issued by their commune gets several months to renew it through the national service before the old number stops being valid (Service-Public). Until then, registration applies only in some communes in high-pressure housing areas.

The same note sets the limits for the simplified micro-BIC tax regime: €15,000 of income with a 30% allowance for unclassified furnished tourist rentals, and €77,700 for the 2026 return or €83,600 for the 2027 return, with a 50% allowance, for classified ones. Above those amounts you move to the actual-expenses regime, so ask a French accountant which one fits you.

Paris is stricter. You may rent your main residence, a home you live in at least 8 months a year, for up to 90 days a year. You register online, get a number at once and must show it on every listing, and the owner or tenant files, not a management company. Going over 90 days can cost up to €10,000 for each year of excess, and not registering up to €5,000. A second home needs a change-of-use authorization with compensation from the first night, or the fine can reach €100,000 plus up to €1,000 a day per square meter (Ville de Paris, updated March 25, 2026).

Amsterdam

Since April 1, 2026, holiday rental of a home in Centrum, Oude Pijp and Nieuwe Pijp has been capped at 15 nights a year, half the previous 30. The permit, the 4-guest maximum and the duty to notify the city, in place since 2017, still apply. The 15-night cap is one step on the city's escalation ladder: if nuisance stays too high, the city can decide to allow no holiday-rental nights at all in those areas (NH Nieuws).

Example: You live in De Pijp and hosted guests for 9 nights between January and March 2026. With a 15-night cap for the year, you have 6 nights left for the rest of 2026. A host who had already reached 15 nights by April can't rent again until next year.

Italy

Every home rented short-term or for tourism in Italy needs a CIN, the national identification code that replaced the regional codes. You request it online from the Ministry of Tourism with SPID or an electronic identity card, with the cadastral data and a self-certification that the unit meets the safety requirements. Show it outside the building and on every online listing, including your own direct booking site. Since January 2, 2025, fines run from €800 to €8,000 for renting or advertising without a valid CIN and from €500 to €5,000 for not displaying it (Altroconsumo).

Lisbon

Lisbon's amended rules for alojamento local, the Portuguese short-term rental registration, took effect on December 6, 2025. An area where rentals reach 10% or more of permanent homes is in absolute containment, and from 5% to under 10% it's in relative containment. In both, new registrations are generally refused. Six parishes were in absolute containment: Santa Maria Maior (66.9%), Misericórdia (43.8%), Santo António (25.1%), São Vicente (16.1%), Arroios (13.5%) and Estrela (10.8%) (Cuatrecasas).

• Transfers: in containment areas, transferring a house or apartment registration makes it lapse, subject to exceptions in national law. Don't price a purchase as if the registration comes with the keys.
• Recent leases: no new registration if the home had a residential lease in the last five years, unless the tenant is the one applying.

Athens and Thessaloniki

In September 2026, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced that new registration numbers for short-term rentals will stay suspended through December 31, 2027 in Athens' first, second and third municipal districts, which take in Plaka, Kolonaki, Koukaki, Syntagma, Monastiraki and Exarchia, and in Thessaloniki's first district (To Vima). Owners without a registration can't newly list there. Read the legal text once it's published before you rely on the exact date.

Ireland

Ireland's Short-Term Letting and Tourism Bill was published on October 6, 2026 and was still before the Oireachtas, the Irish parliament, in mid-October (Hotel and Restaurant Times). The plan: Fáilte Ireland's register opens on December 1, 2026, and everyone offering paid stays of up to 21 nights, a room in their home or a whole property, must register each unit by December 31, 2026. Registration is online, renews every year and has a nominal fee that hadn't been set.

Each unit gets one number that must appear in all listings and advertisements. From December 31, 2026, platforms must show the number, check listings at random and remove listings when Fáilte Ireland orders it. Planning rules come with it: in cities and towns of more than 20,000 people you confirm planning compliance when you register, smaller towns get two years, and letting rooms in your own main home is exempt from these planning rules (Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment).

United Kingdom

England has no national register yet. Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy told Parliament on September 3, 2026 that the register of short-term and holiday lets should be fully operational by March 2027. How it will run, what hosts must provide and how often they'll register were still undecided (Propertymark).

In London, you need planning permission to let a home short-term for more than 90 nights in a calendar year, or for any nights at all if no one providing the accommodation pays council tax on it. The rule comes from the Deregulation Act 2015, and ignoring an enforcement notice is a criminal offense with an unlimited fine (Tower Hamlets Council).

Scotland's law changed on October 1, 2022, and new hosts need a license before they accept bookings or receive guests. Edinburgh became Scotland's first short-term let control area on September 5, 2022, so ask your council what control status means for your address (Scottish Government, updated May 15, 2026).

Operating in Scotland without a license can bring a fine of up to £2,500 and a one-year ban on applying, and a license usually lasts three years (mygov.scot).

Wales takes a different route. Anyone who takes bookings for stays of 31 nights or less must register with the Welsh Revenue Authority by March 31, 2027. It's free, agents can register for owners, and it's required even where the council doesn't bring in the Visitor Levy (Welsh Government, updated October 8, 2026).

United States and Canada Rules

The United States has no national short-term rental registry, so the rules come from states, counties and cities. The table covers the headline changes, and the guides linked below go deeper. Canada adds a federal tax rule on top of provincial and city rules.

New York City

Local Law 18 of 2022 requires hosts to register with the Mayor's Office of Special Enforcement, and booking services such as Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com may not process transactions for unregistered short-term rentals. Enforcement began on September 5, 2023. Rentals of 30 consecutive days or more are exempt, and short-term rentals are barred in buildings on the city's Prohibited Buildings list, such as NYCHA properties and entirely rent-regulated buildings (NYC Office of Special Enforcement).

The city's dos and don'ts are short: host only in the unit where you live, stay there while guests are with you, and have no more than 2 guests, not counting children under 4. Entire-unit rentals aren't allowed, even in your own home. A bill to let owners of one- and two-family homes host up to 4 adult guests and lock bedroom doors got no vote before the Council's last business day of 2025, December 18 (Skift), so plan on the current rules.

Our New York City market guide covers what still works under the law, including longer stays.

Maui

Mayor Richard Bissen signed Bill 9 on December 15, 2025. It ends the zoning exemption that let about 7,000 apartment-zoned "Minatoya List" units run as vacation rentals, on January 1, 2029 in West Maui and January 1, 2031 in the rest of the county. Owners filed two lawsuits in the 2nd Circuit Court in December 2025, one seeking class-action status for all Minatoya List owners (Maui Now).

On June 19, 2026, the County Council voted 7-2 for Bill 88, which creates two hotel zoning districts, H-3 and H-4. About 4,500 condos in West and South Maui could seek reclassification and keep vacation-rental use, but each property needs planning commission review and its own Council decision, and the planning commissions had recommended against the measure (Honolulu Star-Advertiser via Hotel Online). If you own one of these units, follow the lawsuits and your building's rezoning case, and plan for the deadline in the meantime.

Other U.S. Cities and State Permit Data

For city rules beyond these two, and for the states that limit what cities can regulate, see our guide to U.S. city rules in 2026.

To see how much licensed supply your market already has, use our U.S. permit data hub, which brings official state, city and county registries together, with pages for the states it covers. A license isn't a listing, and places that publish nothing are missing, so treat any count as a floor and confirm your own permit and renewal date with the office that issued it.

For the national picture across those registries, read our State of STR Permits 2026 report.

Our permits and licensing guide walks through that check step by step.

Canada

Federal rules that came with Bill C-69 deny income tax deductions, such as capital cost allowance, interest, insurance and utilities, on short-term rentals (homes offered for less than 90 consecutive days) that lack a required license, permit or registration or that operate where short-term rentals are banned. The rule applies to expenses from January 1, 2024, which leaves the gross rent taxable with nothing to offset it (Department of Finance Canada). If any unit's paperwork lapsed, speak to your accountant before you file.

In British Columbia, hosts register with the province and, from May 1, 2025, must show the provincial registration number on every online listing. The annual fees announced in January 2025 were C$100 for a short-term rental in the host's own home, C$450 for one the host doesn't live in and C$600 for an entire strata hotel (Destination BC).

Latin America and the Caribbean Rules

In the places below, the main duties are registration and tax: a city or national registry, a number on the listing and VAT or reporting on short stays. Building rules and local permits still decide what's allowed at a given address.

Mexico City

Mexico City's Digital Registration System for short-term rentals began operating on May 22, 2026, under changes made to the city's Tourism Law in 2024. Hosts register online with their identity and property details, and registration is a condition for offering a home on digital platforms. Skipping it can lead to administrative proceedings, limits on operating and losing the ability to list on platforms (TENA Abogados, June 2026). If you host there, register before anything else and keep the confirmation with the unit's records.

Colombia

Colombia's National Tourism Registry, the RNT, is the number that matters. Decree 1836 of December 24, 2021, issued under Law 2068 of 2020, requires platforms to register in the RNT, show each host's RNT number and take a listing down when the host doesn't show it or a final administrative or court order requires it. Registration is free through the chambers of commerce. A separate decree, 1338 of 2021, makes platforms pay a tourism contribution of 0.25% of their commission and fee income (Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Tourism).

Costa Rica

Costa Rica's law on tourist rental services took effect in October 2019. It covers homes, apartments, villas, single rooms and similar stays, and requires providers to register with the Costa Rican Tourism Institute and the tax authorities, issue digital invoices and pay 13% value added tax plus income tax. In March 2026, The Tico Times reported a decree that makes platforms report their hosts so the tax authority can cross-check (The Tico Times). If your Costa Rica home isn't registered for tax, fix that before platform data reaches the authority.

Puerto Rico and Other Islands

In Puerto Rico, Senate Bill 238, filed by Senator Nitza Morán-Trinidad, would amend the Room Occupancy Tax Act to create a municipal registry and a uniform licensing framework for short-term rentals. It had its first public hearing in April 2025 (News is My Business via VRMA). We couldn't confirm its status in October 2026, so check it before you plan around it. Other Caribbean islands are left out because we couldn't confirm their current rules from primary sources this month; ask the island's tourism or tax authority.

Asia-Pacific Rules

Asia-Pacific rules lean on day caps and levies. Japan caps private lodging days, Greater Sydney caps non-hosted rental days, and Victoria charges a levy on short stays, including bookings you take directly.

Japan

Japan's Private Lodging Business Act lets a home take guests for up to 180 days a year, counted per registered home, with the year running from noon on April 1 and each day from noon to noon. You notify the prefectural governor, or the local office in large cities and Tokyo's special wards, and local ordinances can restrict operation further. Hosts keep a guest register, keep the home hygienic, explain noise rules, respond to neighbors' complaints and post a sign. An owner who doesn't live there hands those duties, except the sign, to a private lodging administrator (Japan Tourism Agency).

New South Wales

In Greater Sydney, the Ballina area and parts of the Clarence Valley and Muswellbrook, non-hosted short-term rentals are capped at 180 days a year, counted in 12-month periods from the date you first registered. Bookings of 21 consecutive days or more don't count toward the limit. Registration on the state's short-term rental register costs A$65, then A$25 a year to renew. If it lapses, platforms can't accept bookings for three months and the home is then removed from the register. Byron Shire has capped non-hosted rentals at 60 days a year in most of the shire since September 23, 2024, with two 365-day precincts as exceptions (NSW Planning, updated February 10, 2025).

Victoria

Since January 1, 2025, Victoria has charged a short stay levy of 7.5% of the total booking fee on stays of less than 28 consecutive days in the same property. The fee includes the nightly rate, cleaning fees, GST and any late checkout fee. The booking platform pays on platform bookings, and the owner or tenant pays on bookings taken directly. Stays in the owner's or renter's principal place of residence are excluded. The State Revenue Office's own example: an A$1,000 booking fee carries an A$75 levy. Properties with A$75,000 or more a year in booking fees lodge quarterly, and the rest lodge once a year by January 30 (State Revenue Office Victoria, updated September 29, 2026).

Night Caps and How to Track Them

A cap only helps if you count the way the authority counts. London counts the calendar year, Japan counts from noon on April 1, and New South Wales counts 12-month periods from your registration date. Ask your city which year it uses, count every paid night from every channel, including direct bookings, and keep the running total where you'll see it before you accept a request.

Example: A London flat hosted 60 nights by the end of August and has 25 more booked for the autumn. That's 85, which leaves 5 nights before planning permission is needed. A 7-night booking in December would take the year to 92, so the host either turns it down or applies for permission first.

Longer stays can take pressure off a cap where the rules treat them differently. New South Wales doesn't count bookings of 21 consecutive days or more, and New York City exempts rentals of 30 consecutive days or more from registration. Check your own city's threshold before you change your minimum stay.

Register, Display, Collect and Keep Records

The same four duties repeat across every table above. Set each one up once per unit, and later rule changes become small updates.

Register Each Unit

Register per unit, not per owner: Ireland issues one number per unit, and Italy's CIN is per property. Check who may file. In Paris the owner or tenant files, not a management company. In Wales agents can register for owners. Ireland lets an agent register only when the unit is held by a company. Then put every renewal in your calendar, because registrations run on different clocks: every year in Ireland and New South Wales, and usually every three years for a Scottish license.

Show the Number Everywhere You Advertise

Display rules reach beyond the platforms. Paris wants the number on every listing you publish, Italy on every online listing and outside the building, Ireland in all listings and advertisements, and British Columbia on every online listing. Use the exact format the authority issued and keep it identical everywhere, so a platform check or an inspector finds one consistent record.

Registration number: [Number exactly as issued]
Issued by: [Authority name, city or region]
Licensed for: [Maximum number of guests] guests
Valid until: [Expiry or renewal date]

Collect and Pay the Taxes

Platforms collect some taxes and leave others to you. Victoria's levy shows the split: the platform pays on platform bookings and you pay on direct ones. Costa Rica expects hosts to charge 13% VAT and issue digital invoices. Canada can deny your deductions if a unit's paperwork isn't in order, and France's micro-BIC thresholds decide how rental income is taxed. For each unit, list every tax, who collects it on each channel and when it's due.

Our tax guide for hosts covers U.S. lodging and income tax basics.

When you need a professional, our directory of STR-focused CPAs lists accountants who work with short-term rental owners.

Keep Records You Can Hand Over

Assume the authority sees what the platform sees: under the EU regulation, that's monthly nights, guests and listing details. Keep your own copy that matches it: each booking's dates, nights, guest count, channel and amount, the taxes collected and by whom, plus proof of insurance and every registration document. Japan already requires a guest register. When an inspector or a tax office asks a question, records that match the platform's data make it a shorter conversation.

Subject: Short-term rental rules for [Street address]

Hello,

I am [Your name], the [owner or manager] of [Street address and unit number]. Before I [list this home or complete a purchase], I want to confirm the rules that apply to short stays at this address.

1. Do I need a registration number, license or permit before I advertise? If so, where do I apply, what does it cost and how long is it valid?
2. Is there a cap on nights or days a year, and from what date is it counted?
3. Does the answer change if this is not my main residence?
4. Is this address in an area where new registrations are frozen or limited?
5. Which taxes or levies apply, and which ones must I collect on bookings I take directly?
6. Are there building or co-owner rules I should check?

A written reply would help me keep a clear record. Thank you for your help.

Registration Numbers on Your Own Website

Your own website counts as advertising under the display rules above, and Italy's rule names direct booking sites outright. Show the number on each property page, near the price and the booking button, and in the footer if you have a single property. With several units, give each unit its own number on its own page. Build any levy you pay yourself, such as Victoria's 7.5% on direct bookings, into your direct rate.

Platform rules still apply around your site. Airbnb's Off-Platform and Fee Transparency Policy bars asking guests to move current, future or repeat bookings off Airbnb, offering discounts to book elsewhere and using guest contact details for marketing, and repeated or severe violations can lead to deactivation (Airbnb). Your website should win bookings from people who find your brand, your social accounts or your Google listing.

Our direct booking strategy guide covers how to grow that side within the rules.

Cavmir™ builds direct booking websites for luxury vacation rentals. Whoever builds yours, make the registration number a required field on every property page, so a new unit can't go live without it.
