To market a property for short-term rental, it is essential to comply with the applicable regulations in the autonomous community where the property is located.
At dayApartment, we review the documentation for each property before adding it to our portfolio to ensure it meets legal requirements and to provide security for both owners and companies.
Currently, there is no single registration number valid throughout Spain.
Following the publication of Supreme Court Ruling 620/2026, the provisions of Royal Decree 1312/2024 —which required obtaining a national Rental Registration Number (NRA) through the Property Registry to advertise short-term accommodations on digital platforms— were repealed.
Therefore:
✔ It is no longer necessary to obtain a national NRA to list a property.
✔ Platforms cannot require this number as a prerequisite for listing a property.
✔ The registrations and licenses established by each autonomous community remain fully valid and mandatory, where applicable.
Although the NRA is no longer required, property owners must continue to comply with applicable regional regulations.
Depending on the property’s location, it may be necessary to have:
Each autonomous community establishes its own requirements.
The NRA (Número de Registro de Alquiler, Rental Registration Number) is a unique official code that identifies properties intended for rental periods under one year. Its purpose is to ensure that all offered properties comply with current regulations, thereby providing transparency, control, and legal secutiry for both owners and users.
The repeal of the NRA does not affect the operation of the Ventanilla Única Digital.
The mechanisms for exchanging information between platforms and public administrations remain in effect for the purposes of oversight, monitoring, and compiling statistics.
The information provided by the platforms is now linked to the regional registries or licenses corresponding to each accommodation.
