More than 1.1 million tourist rental beds in Spain could become unavailable starting this next August if the mandatory registrations in the Spanish National Registry for Tourist and Seasonal Rentals, introduced by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Agenda, are not completed. This would require online platforms to remove listings that do not include the Rental Registration Number (NRA, for its acronym in Spanish). These beds represent 87% of the total national short-term rental (STR) offering active in Spain this summer, as of July 15. Mabrian, the global travel intelligence and tourism advisory partner, reached this conclusion after analysing how Spain’s accommodation supply could be impacted by the recently announced agreement between the Ministry and Airbnb, which obliges the platform to remove all listings that do not include the NRA as of August 1, following a 10-business-day grace period after hosts are notified to update their listings accordingly.
