At Xerxes Tax and Law , we understand that the recent changes in navigating the landscape of short-term rentals in Spain can be complex and daunting and if done incorrectly, can impact your potential income from your property. That’s why we are committed to guiding you through the latest regulatory changes, including the crucial implementation of the Rental Registration Number (NRA).
Effective from July 1, 2025 , all short-term rental properties in Spain – covering entire homes, individual rooms, and even boats used for accommodation – must display a valid NRA.
This new measure, mandated by Royal Decree 1312/2024, aims to foster transparency, ensure compliance, and streamline proper taxation within the sector. Non-compliance, such as failing to include the NRA on your listings, will result in removal from major online platforms like Airbnb, Booking.com, and Vrbo—emphasizing the importance of adhering to this regulation.
Why is this important? The NRA serves as a unique identifier for each short-term rental property, and its proper use is essential for legal security and market integrity. The registration process requires precise information, including personal identification, property details, capacity, address, and cadastral reference. Applications must be made through the official portal of Spain’s trusted authority for property registration.
The NRA must be renewed annually, ensuring that your rental remains compliant and operational within the legal framework. At Xerces Tax and Law, we are here to help you understand these requirements, assist with the registration process, and ensure your rental activities meet all legal standards and maximize your property’s income potential. Let us guide you through this new procedure to safeguard your interests and maintain a compliant rental business in Spain.
