Hi do I need to keep a set of rules displayed? Also do i need to ask for identity proof, address proof etc and male a copy?

@Sujal0, it is strongly advised to create a firm set of House Rules, and to include these in your listing's description, as well as have them in a visible place in the accommodation itself. For instance, mine are in a folder in one of the drawers in the guest room. I make a point of indicating it, and asking guests to read it. 

When a booking is requested, a message containing the House Rules is sent automatically to the enquirer. This can help her/him determine

whether the accommodation is a good match. It can also act as an effective 'filtering' system for the host. 

If a potential guest has no photo, no ID, reviews, or references attached to his/her profile, you should ask them to provide these to AirBnB before you can consider their request.

@Sujal0 You can also set Verified ID as a Reservation Requirement.  It is located to the left on your Manage Listing page.
