Can you legally short-let here?
What the official source we read says. Rules change and cities add their own, so check the source before you count on short-let income.
| Where | Licence or registration | Caps or zones | Nights and stays | Building and owners |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Portugal | Registration is by prior communication at the Balcão Único Eletrónico, which issues the registration number unless the council objects within 60 days (90 days in containment areas). Liability insurance is required. gov.pt, page updated 8 Sept 2026 | Municipalities can, by their own regulation, create containment areas (with limits on transferring registrations) and sustainable-growth areas. Turismo de Portugal, page updated 7 Jan 2025 | Not stated in the official sources we read | The owners' assembly can no longer cancel a registration itself. It can oppose with a reasoned resolution of more than half of the building's permillage and ask the mayor to decide on cancellation. Turismo de Portugal, page updated 7 Jan 2025 |
