Poland Moves to Regulate Airbnb-Style Rentals With New National Registry

General views of residential spaces and people in the city are seen in Warsaw, Poland, on July 15, 2026. Poland's government has tabled draft legislation to regulate the country's short-term rental market, introducing a national registry for short-term accommodation providers. The bill would classify rentals of up to 30 days as hotel services, requiring hosts to register properties with local authorities, submit house rules, and confirm compliance with fire safety and sanitary standards. Municipal councils would also gain power to restrict short-term lets, including Airbnb, to designated zones. The proposal follows complaints from residents in cities such as Warsaw and Krakow over noise and disturbance linked to the unregulated growth of short-term rentals.
