Registration of Self-catering Accommodations

The Deputy Ministry of Tourism announces that according to the “Regulation of the Establishment and Operation of Hotels and Tourist Accommodations Law” the entrepreneur/manager of each self-catering accommodation may advertise and/or rent the self-catering accommodation, provided that it is registered in the Register of of Self-catering Accommodations and has received a registration permit and registration number from the Deputy Ministry of Tourism, which should be indicated in the advertisement and/or promotion of the accommodation, as well as in all related transactions.

For the purpose of registering self-catering accommodation in the register of the Deputy Ministry of Tourism, there is an online platform, through which those interested can register their accommodation and secure the registration permit.

Under the provisions of the relevant legislation, anyone who maintains or operates a self-catering accommodation without a registration permit, or whose registration permit has been revoked, is guilty of an offense and, on conviction, liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding one (1) year or a fine which does not exceed five thousand euros (€5,000) or both of these penalties, and if the violation continues after his conviction, he is guilty of a further offense and is subject to a further fine which does not exceed two hundred euros (€200) for each day the violation continues.
