Ban on tourist rentals in communities: registration number denied due to statutory prohibition

The Directorate General for Legal Certainty and Public Faith has declared the inadmissibility of an appeal against the suspension of a tourist rental registration number. The decision is based on the fact that the community's bylaws prohibit such activity, upholding the precedent set by previous rulings (from June and July 2025) that prevent registration when a statutory prohibition exists.

In 2 key points

  1. Inadmissibility of the appeal due to consistency with previous rulings from June and July 2025 (Inadmisión)
  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 communities where bylaws prohibit tourist rentals, this ruling confirms the impossibility of obtaining a single registration number for short-term activities. Affected individuals may appeal this decision by filing a claim with the Civil Court of the provincial capital within a two-month period (under Articles 325 and 328 of the Mortgage Law).
