The Directorate General for Legal Certainty and Public Faith has ruled on an appeal against the suspension of the assignment of a unique registration number for short-term rentals. The registrar suspended the process because the necessary enabling title was not proven in accordance with Royal Decree 1312/2024. The case highlights the importance of the owners' association statutes and the need to comply with regional or local regulations to prevent the disabling of advertisements on platforms (Art. 9 and 10 RD 1312/2024).
For owners of tourist accommodation, obtaining a unique registration number is conditional upon proving the licence or responsible declaration and complying with the owners' association statutes (Art. 9.2.a RD 1312/2024). Failure to comply or failure to rectify within 7 working days results in the suspension of the registration number's validity and requires platforms to remove or disable the advertisements (Art. 10.2 and 10.3 RD 1312/2024).
