The autonomous region of Andalusia approved its Holiday Rental Law 2 years back in February 2016. A lot of Home owners who are finding their guests on various online portals like Airbnb, HomeAway, Trip Advisor, etc were in a state of confusion as there was not much clarity on what needs to be done to comply with the law.

The Law also requires to have the rental agreement signed with the guests and their details updated on the policia platform.
