Overview

  • Property owners must secure a unique NRUA registration number by July 1 when full enforcement of the January decree kicks in
  • Nearly 100,000 tourist rentals have registered since January and the Valencian government has deregistered over 10,600 illegal listings
  • Owners are required to submit proof of ownership, energy efficiency certification and regional tourism licences via the digital one-stop portal
  • Online platforms such as Airbnb and Booking must display valid registration numbers for each listing or face fines and potential delisting
  • Non-compliance carries financial penalties, legal consequences and the risk of blocked or removed listings from major booking sites
