Legal tip 623. A growing business in Spain
Wednesday, October 26, 2011 @ 10:10 AM
A great idea, growing in Spain due to the big number of empty apartments: Holiday lets.
There is s tendency for international online hiring of apartments for vacations. Specially among the youngest.
Legal requirements:
For the owner: to register for VAT and, depending on regions,to register the
house/ apartment on the Tourism department. Some regulations already make obligatory for the owner to have indemnity insurance, but in any case, even if it is not obligatory by Law, it is always highly recommendable.
For the tenant: depending on regions, there are better or worse regulations in favour of consumers. We will be describing the different ones during the following days.
Banks…. Maybe you can start giving free stays to your clients instead of casseroles or TVs…. ;)
Good catering, cleaning, linen changing and touring companies will certainly make this also attractive for clients of older age too.
