Airbnb registration in Brussels: how to get compliant | Sabimmo Blog

Before publishing your listing, your property must be declared. Here is how to obtain your registration number in Brussels, the simple way.

Why register?

In Brussels, tourist accommodation is governed by a regional ordinance. Before renting short-term, you must file a prior declaration and obtain a registration number, which must appear on your listings (Airbnb, Booking…).

The conditions to meet

• Urban-planning compliance of the property;
• Fire safety: detectors, extinguisher, exits;
• Civil liability insurance covering the activity;
• a clean, healthy and equipped property;
• where applicable, approval from the co-ownership or from the owner if you are a tenant.

The process, step by step

• Gather the documents (title deed/lease, certificates, floor plan…);
• File the declaration with the regional services (Brussels Economy and Employment);
• Obtain the registration number;
• Display it on your listings.
