Short-term rental rules, by country and city
What a short-stay operator has to register, how many nights may be let, and which accommodation taxes are due. Every page shows the date the rule was last checked, and says plainly where we have not checked at all.
79 places covered. This is not legal advice, and it does not cover every local rule. Planning controls, building rules, strata and body corporate by-laws and fire safety requirements sit outside it.

Where a country or city is missing, that means we have not verified it. It does not mean no rules apply. In most markets the rules that actually bind an operator are set locally, and an absence here is a gap in our checking, not a gap in the law.
