Homeowners who offer short-term (tourism-purpose) rentals are legally required to register with certain official systems.
These registrations are mandatory for both security and financial compliance purposes.
Homeowners offering short-term rentals are required to report guest information to the system of the General Directorate of Security.
For this purpose, the homeowner must:
Register with the Identity Notification System (KBS)
Report guest check-in and check-out information through the system
This obligation applies to all accommodation providers and also covers short-term rentals.
Short-term rental activities may be considered commercial income. Therefore:
The homeowner may be required to register as a taxpayer
Rental income must be declared accordingly
Since tax obligations may vary depending on individual circumstances, it is recommended to consult a certified public accountant or financial advisor.
Homeowners may choose to complete all registration processes individually and independently.
However, upon request:
These processes can be coordinated through Kozy Holiday
If the homeowner prefers, the following steps can be managed under Kozy Holiday’s coordination:
✔ Police (KBS) registration process
✔ Tax registration and related guidance
✔ Required official application steps
In such cases, the process is planned according to the scope of service and power of attorney provided.
Engaging in short-term rental activities without completing these official registrations may result in administrative penalties.
Kozy Holiday informs homeowners about these legal obligations and, upon request, provides process management and coordination support.
