Not legal advice. This page summarises official texts and open data; it does not tell you whether a particular home can be let or keep its registration. Town halls set their own planning rules and communities of owners can restrict tourist use: before you buy, let or advertise, check with the regional tourism department and the Ayuntamiento, or ask a professional.

5,222 homes on the register against 2,926 counted by INE on the platforms: INE (Spain's national statistics institute) counts tourist homes listed on the three most used accommodation platforms in Spain, by web scraping and removing duplicates; it publishes the count twice a year, with reference dates in May and November. It is a different measure from the regional register, which also includes homes that are not advertised.
The rules in the Valencian Community
Registration number: Valencian law requires holiday homes to show their exact location and their Registro de Turismo number in all advertising (Ley 15/2018, art. 19.1 b).
- Only whole homes can be let as viviendas de uso turístico, for stays of up to 10 days in a row with the same guest; letting rooms to tourists is prohibited (art. 65.1 and 65.3). (Boletín Oficial del Estado)
- The home needs a favourable municipal report on urban-planning compatibility for tourist use (informe municipal de compatibilidad urbanística) and, where required, the municipal permits for that use (art. 65.1). (Boletín Oficial del Estado)
- The cadastral reference of the home must appear in the declaration to the register and in the letting contracts (art. 65.1). (Boletín Oficial del Estado)
- Registration of a tourist home on the Registro de Turismo is valid for 5 years, with the exceptions set in the law and its implementing decree (art. 65.4). (Boletín Oficial del Estado)
- Article 65 was amended by Decreto-ley 9/2024 of 2 August (note in the consolidated text on BOE). (Boletín Oficial del Estado)
