Do you rent out a property in Spain via Airbnb, Booking.com or a similar platform? Then be aware that something has changed since 1 July 2025.
Every holiday home that is rented online through a platform with automatic booking and payment functions must now have an official registration number. This requirement is part of a broader EU regulation aimed at making the short-term rental market more transparent and better regulated.
In this blog, we explain step by step what the new rules involve, who needs to register, and how to apply for the registration number. This way, you’ll be fully compliant on time and can continue renting out your property with peace of mind.
