The Directorate General of Legal Certainty and Public Faith confirms that Property Registrars must deny the assignment of short-term rental registration numbers when the activity is intended to be carried out by rooms (art. 2.2 and 3.2 of Decree 79/2014 of the Community of Madrid). Madrid's regional regulations require tourist accommodation to be operated under the principle of unit exploitation for the entire property, not allowing room-by-room use. This resolution ratifies that the Single Rental Registry must verify compliance with the regulations of territorial administrations (art. 9.2 RD 1312/2024).
For owners and managers of tourist accommodation in the Community of Madrid, this resolution prevents obtaining the registration identification required to rent individual rooms within the same property, limiting the activity exclusively to the rental of the entire premises (Art. 18.1 Decree 79/2014). Applicants intending to operate under the 'room with ensuite' model will be unable to meet the unit of exploitation requirements mandated by regional regulations for short-term registration.
