UE pregătește noi reguli pentru Airbnb și închirierile pe termen scurt. Ce s-ar putea schimba

The European Union is preparing new regulations for short-term rentals like Airbnb to address housing accessibility issues in tourist areas. The Affordable Housing Act aims to provide local authorities with tools to manage housing pressures effectively. The initiative comes in response to a significant increase in short-term rentals, which have risen by 93% from 2018 to 2024, contributing to housing shortages. The EU acknowledges that while short-term rentals are a factor, they are not the sole cause of the housing crisis, which also involves insufficient housing supply and high vacancy rates. The new regulations will clarify legal frameworks for local interventions and seek to balance local housing needs with tourism benefits.
