Tourist rental rules in France
Registration, 90 to 120 days, change of use, micro-BIC, tourist tax: our articles detail each rule, with official texts.
Declare the property and retain its registration number
Article L324-1-1 provides for prior registration. Keep the receipt, identify whether the property is your main home, and update changed information. The operator’s registration service is distinct from the platforms’ API.
Track the main-home annual rental cap
The standard cap is 120 days per calendar year. A municipality may lower it to 90 days. Track all channels and respond to a municipal request for the day count within one month.
Prepare change-of-use permission and the EPC
Where change-of-use permission is required, mainland France requires an EPC rated A–E for that permission, then A–D from 1 January 2034. Municipal conditions also apply.
Check condominium rules and inform the manager
Read the building rules and relevant resolutions. The owner must inform the condominium manager when the property is declared as a tourist rental. Administrative registration does not override condominium rules.
Use the correct micro-BIC category and tax year
The July 2026 tax code sets €15,000 / 30% for unclassified tourist rentals and €83,600 / 50% for classified rentals. Eligibility also depends on the reference years and other statutory conditions.
Distinguish LMNP and LMP tax status
Professional status requires both annual household furnished-rental receipts above €23,000 and receipts exceeding the other income categories listed in article 155 IV. One threshold alone is insufficient.
Apply local tourist-tax rules
Use the municipality’s regime, rate and payment calendar. Under the actual-night regime, minors and other statutory categories are exempt. Reconcile amounts collected by each booking channel.
Collect police forms for foreign guests
Foreign guests, including EU nationals, complete and sign a police form on arrival. Retain it for six months and send it to the police or gendarmerie only on request.
Keep official star classification up to date
Official classification is optional, ranges from one to five stars and lasts five years. It requires an accredited or approved assessor’s visit and is distinct from guest reviews.
