Apply for an NRA rental code (short-term lets/holiday homes)
Property
Following new laws on tourism lets, all landlords that offer properties as short-term lets must first register them in a new national short-term rental registry. The idea behind this is to control better these lets and avoid fraud.
All landlords who offer homes, or even individual rooms, as short-term accommodations on property portals that accept online booking and payment, must apply for an NRA code (rental code).
This applies to both seasonal lets and holiday homes as they are both short-term rentals. This code allows your property to be registered in a short-term rental registry. You need to show this code in your rental ads to avoid large fines.
- Holiday homes: You need a Tourism Licence. You must already have a Tourism Licence before applying for an NRA code, as it is required for the application procedure. We can get you a TL in the region of Andalusia.
- Seasonal lets: Do NOT require a Tourism Licence.
LNA can do this for you. It takes 8 to 10 working days.
If you do not have a Spanish digital certificate, a specific power of attorney is required so we may apply for it on your behalf.
Our fee: 300 plus VAT
Who needs to register?
- Tourist rentals (holiday homes)

- Even if you rent individual rooms short term, you must register
If you offer a property in Spain using property platforms which enable online bookings and payments (such as AirBnb, Booking, Vrbo, etc), you must register. Idealista is not one of them.
