Licence in UAE

[Alina1448]

Morning dear hosts. I rent out my studio in Dubai and recently got a message that I need to have licence of holiday homes to post my ad. But I'm not holiday homes and I have only 1 appartment on the site. What shod I do ? Maybe, you can share the email of airbnb support with me?

It's not Airbnb's role to support you with this . @Alina1448 they are just a marketing platform.

It's up to you as the business owner to ensure if there are short term rentals legislation in your area you a) are eligible to register b) you have applied for any licence/registration. 

you can normally find details on your local government website together with an application form to fill out.

Hi @Alina1448 😊, 

Thank you for asking this question in the Community Center!

Did you follow @Helen3’s suggestion?

I recommend connecting with local hosts and asking your question through our 👉 Local Host Clubs. 

I'm also mentioning a few hosts from Dubai here to see if they can help you: @Ali16691, @Almira44, @Katya145, @Alessandra1468 and @Giovanna539.

Thank you in advance everyone!

Warm regards🌻,
