Compliance check

Can you legally rent out your property? Find out from our experts.

Short-term rental rules change fast — licenses, night caps, taxes, neighbour consent. Tell us where your property is and our team will send you exactly what applies, then keep you compliant.

General guidance only — not legal advice.

Why this matters

The rules are tightening — every year.

From Barcelona to Lisbon, Paris to New York — cities are cracking down on short-term rentals. Night caps shrink. Licenses get harder. Taxes appear overnight. Most hosts find out the hard way.

We watch the rules so you don't have to. And we handle the paperwork so you can focus on guests.

Fines
Unlicensed rentals face escalating penalties in most major cities.
Delisting
Airbnb and Booking.com remove listings without a valid registration number.
Shutdowns
Repeat non-compliance can force a full stop on bookings.

I went from €1,800 to €2,600 per month in the first 90 days. The dynamic pricing alone paid for the service ten times over.

I was spending 8 hours a week on messages. Now it's zero — and my guests get faster, better answers than when I did it myself.

My listing manager spotted a local marathon weekend I had priced normally. That one tip earned me an extra €800. Hostmizer pays for itself.
