Change from private host to professional host

Hello everybody

Since a few weeks, I try to change my private account to a professional account. Forsed by the Italian law I foundet a Srl. company. I asked meny times the Airbnb guys, but nobody could help me so far. I need to change from my private name to the name of the company and insert the tax no and VAT no of the company. Thank you for your help. Beat

Hello @Beat0 

 

You will need to enable Airbnb's professional tools to enter your business tax details Beat:

Click on the part "Account settings" in the link to activate them and then you'll be able to enter the company details that will need to be verified by Airbnb as part of the Know Your Customer protocole.  See link below on what that implies:

Your company details will appear at the end of the listing and it will show that you operate as a professional rather than an individual.  You can keep the same host profile and just add the company details to that profile.

Just be aware that you will have two calendars appearing - the one you already know and a new one called a "multi calendar" that allows us to have different minimum stays for example and much more!

On the forum, on the left hand side you'll see "Host Guides".  There is one on how to navigate them and what they do but if you get stuck, just come back here😊

Good luck
