Renting your main residence on Airbnb in Paris: the 90-day rule

Since 1 January 2025, a main residence rented out as furnished tourist accommodation in Paris can only be rented for 90 days a year, down from 120. The City applied the option opened up by the law of 19 November 2024. Here is what you need to know before renting.

Main or second home: two different regimes

• Main residence (the home you live in at least 8 months a year): holiday rental is allowed up to 90 nights a year, with a declaration to the city hall and a registration number displayed on every listing.
• Second home or investment property: holiday rental requires a change-of-use authorisation, which in Paris generally involves compensation. Without it, short-term rental is not allowed.

The registration number

Every furnished tourist rental in Paris must be declared to the City, which issues a registration number. This number must appear on the Airbnb listing and on any other platform. Platforms block the listing once the night limit is reached.

What if you are away for longer?

Beyond 90 nights, the mobility lease (bail mobilité, 1 to 10 months, furnished) is a good option: it is a residential lease, not subject to the rules for furnished tourist accommodation. It suits owners on assignment, on a temporary posting abroad or travelling for a long time.

Our advice

• Check the status of your home before renting it out.
• Keep a record of the nights rented each year.
• If needed, combine short stays in summer with a mobility lease for the rest of the year.
• Check your building’s co-ownership rules and, if you are a tenant yourself, get your landlord’s agreement.
