Licensing laws for self-catering properties are becoming stricter. In some countries it's already a requirement for specific information to be shown on a property listing. Without it, the listing will potentially not be validated therefore cannot go live and become bookable.
Every region/country will require different regulations and have different deadlines for this required information.
As we know property compliance can be a huge admin headache for property owners and agencies, we are trying to ensure it is as easy and straightforward as possible to manage this.
Channels, e.g. Booking.com, will require the information based on the address of the property in order for compliance to be verified. In the near future, if a property doesn't meet the criteria set by the channel, the channel will most likely remove the property from their site.
