Ban on tourist rentals: suspension of registration number assignment confirmed due to statutory prohibition

The Directorate General for Legal Certainty and Public Faith has declared an appeal against a land registrar's decision in Mijas inadmissible. The decision upholds the suspension of the assignment of a unique registration number for short-term tourist rentals, as the community statutes prohibit such activity. The resolution is based on the legal reasoning used in previous dismissals published in the BOE during 2025.

In 2 key points

  1. Suspension of tourist rental registration numbers is maintained due to prohibitions in community statutes (resolución de 18 de noviembre de 2025)
  2. Two-month deadline to appeal via a claim before the Civil Court (arts. 325 y 328 de la Ley Hipotecaria)

How it affects those involved

For property owners in residential communities wishing to conduct tourist rentals, this resolution ratifies that prohibitions contained within community statutes prevail over applications for activity registration (resolution of 18 November 2025). Interested parties who feel aggrieved may file a claim with the Civil Court within a two-month period (Articles 325 and 328 of the Mortgage Law).
