Tourist license for apartments and holiday homes in Sitges
All the news and useful information to obtain the tourist license in Sitges and adapt your home for tourist use.
The tourist license is a permit that you must obtain if you want to allocate a home for vacation use. This procedure takes between 1 to 3 months to complete and must be carried out before the opening of the establishment or house in which the tourist activity will be launched.
If you want to put your property for vacation use and advertise it on tourist accommodation portals such as Airbnb or Tripadvisor, you must have this license with the registration number to operate within the legal framework. Similarly, if as a guest you want to stay in a vacation home during your vacation, you must verify that said property has the corresponding tourist license to be covered in the event of any incident or problem that may arise.
