Hello @Inna22 , yes, I ask the IDs and other personal information as it is required by the law in Portugal.
As part of the country’s regulations, all accommodations, including hotels and vacation rentals, are required to report guest stays to the SEF (law enforcement agency responsible for border control and the enforcement of immigration laws).
To comply with Portuguese regulations we have to ask our guests to provide us their personal information (full name, date and place of birth, nationality, address, ID number and the country that issued the document).
In case if the guest doesn’t provide us the required information check-in instructions won’t be provided to the guest (we have a self check in system).
Of course all this information is written in the House Rules section of all my listings so the guests are informed about it before they make the reservation.
Kind regards.
Elena.
