2025 was the year of the \u201cnew registers\u201d:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    The Single Register of Short-Term Leases<\/strong> and the Digital Single Window (DSW)<\/strong> have been in place since 2 January 2025 and are mandatory since 1 July 2025 for advertising holiday homes and seasonal rentals on platforms such as Airbnb or Booking.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    The Royal Decree 933\/2021<\/strong> and the platform SES.HOSPITALITY<\/strong> are fully mandatory as of 2 December 2024 for the registration and reporting of travellers in accommodation and self-drive car rental.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In 2026 the focus changes: it is no longer about \u201cknowing the norm\u201d, but about demonstrate compliance<\/strong>, The new system, with more data, more traceability and more inspection capacity on the part of the administrations.<\/p>\n

    In this article we tell you what 2026 will mark for the future:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

      Tourist accommodation and short-term rentals.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Small lodgings, hostels and rural houses.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Companies of rent a car<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      And how we can help you enter 2026 with your homework done.<\/p>\n

      Where we are at the start of 2026<\/h2>\n

      At this stage, the legal scenario is this:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n

        Digital Single Window (DSW)<\/strong> y Single Registry of Leases<\/strong> already operational, with NRA\/Registration Number mandatory to advertise holiday homes and seasonal rentals.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Online platforms must verify<\/strong> that each advertisement has a valid registration number and remove those that do not comply.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        The Travellers' Registration<\/strong> according to RD 933\/2021 is already done, as a general rule, through SES.HOSPITALITY<\/strong>, except in communities with their own systems, such as Catalonia or the Basque Country.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        2025 has been the year of adaptation. 2026 will be the year in which administrations will begin to real cross-referencing<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • \n

          Is this tourist dwelling in the Single Register and, moreover, is it declaring travellers in SES?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        • \n

          Does the number of bookings seen on the platform match the volume of travellers reported?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        • \n

          Are self-driving vehicles for hire complying with RD 933\/2021 and correctly communicating their users?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          2026 for holiday homes: from registration to continuous monitoring<\/h2>\n

          For owners and managers of tourist accommodation, 2025 was the year of \u201cgetting the registration number and surviving the bureaucracy\u201d.\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

          In 2026, the challenge is different:<\/p>\n

            \n
          • \n

            Have all documentation aligned<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

              \n
            • \n

              Registration in the autonomous community.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              Single Registration Number\/NRA via Digital Single Window.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              Registration and communication of travellers through SES.HOSPEDAJES (or regional system where applicable).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              Avoid obvious inconsistencies<\/strong>, for example:<\/p>\n

                \n
              • \n

                Active ads on platforms with no reported traveller movement in months.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

              • \n

                Volume of bookings that does not match the number of registered travellers.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

              • \n

                Accommodation listed on platforms but not listed in the Single Registry.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                The Autonomous Communities have already begun to open sanctioning proceedings against unregulated or non-compliant accommodation.
                All indications are that, by 2026, both the automated controls<\/strong> such as targeted inspections.<\/p>\n

                2026 for small hotels, guesthouses and hostels<\/h2>\n

                Although the Single Registry and the One-Stop-Shop focus on short-term rentals and tourist accommodation (with certain classic accommodations excluded), the RD 933\/2021 does impact virtually all types of accommodation.<\/strong>, whether they are hotels, rural houses, hostels or tourist flats.<\/p>\n

                For these establishments, 2026 brings three key messages:<\/p>\n

                  \n
                1. \n

                  Paper out, digital in<\/strong><\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • \n

                    Handwritten sheets, paper input parts and systems without clear traceability are a risk.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                  • \n

                    What is expected is a flow digital, orderly and exportable<\/strong> if requested by an administration.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n

                  • \n

                    Consistency between PMS, SES and billing<\/strong><\/p>\n

                      \n
                    • \n

                      PMS, booking engine, SES.HOSPACES and billing system shall \u201ctell the same story\u201d: same stay, same travellers, same dates.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n

                    • \n

                      Data protection under scrutiny<\/strong><\/p>\n

                        \n
                      • \n

                        In 2025 the AEPD has already issued specific notes on how to handle identity documentation in order to comply with RD 933\/2021 and minimise data protection risks.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                      • \n

                        In 2026 it will be increasingly important do not overstate data<\/strong> or stored in an unsafe manner.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        2026 for rent a car: SES not optional<\/h2>\n

                        The RD 933\/2021 does not only affect accommodation: it also affects car rental companies without drivers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

                        In 2026 we will see:<\/p>\n

                          \n
                        • \n

                          More companies moving away from using \u201cold-fashioned\u201d contract sheets with no integration and moving to systems that:<\/p>\n

                            \n
                          • \n

                            They register the driver in the format required by the RD.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                          • \n

                            They generate the automatic sending to SES.HOSPEDAJES.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n

                          • \n

                            Growing interest in automate from the lease itself<\/strong>, without staff having to duplicate data.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                            Here we will help you: We have specific rent a car modules, adapted templates and automatic submissions so that the process does not depend on \u201csomeone remembering\u201d.<\/p>\n

                            Mistakes of 2025 that are costly in 2026<\/h2>\n

                            If in 2025 many businesses were \u201con the fly\u201d, in 2026 such small oversights become serious risks:<\/p>\n

                              \n
                            • \n

                              Not using SES.HOSPEDAJES even though obliged to do so<\/strong>, trusting that \u201cno one is in control\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                            • \n

                              Incomplete input parts<\/strong>, with minimum data but without complying with the 17 mandatory fields of RD 933\/2021.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                            • \n

                              Absence of evidence<\/strong>do not keep proof of delivery, logs or reports in case an inspection requests them.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                            • \n

                              Total disconnection<\/strong> between what the online advertisement says, what is in the Single Registry and what is communicated to SES.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                              2026 is the year to correct this: to adjust flows, unify tools and have a clear and coherent picture<\/strong> of the activity.<\/p>\n
