The <strong>Judgment No. 629\/2026 of the Supreme Court (Administrative Division), of 21 May<\/strong>, has fully upheld the administrative appeal lodged by <strong>APARTUR<\/strong> y <strong>ATA<\/strong> against the Single Rental Registry procedure established by <strong>Royal Decree 1312\/2024<\/strong>, which regulated the Single Rental Registry procedure and created the Single Digital Rental Window for the collection and exchange of data relating to short-term accommodation rental services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Royal Decree required hosts of short-term accommodation rental services to obtain a <strong>Single Registry Number<\/strong> as an enabling requirement to carry out this activity, whether on a professional or non-professional basis and on a regular or irregular basis. Hosts could not offer short-term rental services on online platforms without first obtaining this number. The authority to grant it was attributed to the <strong>Land Registry<\/strong> and, in the case of vessels and watercraft, to the Movable Property Registry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>On what grounds does the Supreme Court uphold the appeal?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Royal Decree 1312\/2024 was issued under the jurisdictional basis of <strong>Article 149.1.8 of the Spanish Constitution<\/strong> (the State&#8217;s exclusive jurisdiction over civil legislation and the regulation of registries and public instruments). The Supreme Court has ruled that this jurisdictional basis <strong>is not appropriate<\/strong> to regulate the SRR procedure and that, consequently, the following have been infringed: <strong>the regional governments&#8217; competences in housing matters<\/strong> (art. 148.1.3 SC) and <strong>competences in tourism matters<\/strong> (art. 148.1.18 SC). Additionally, the Supreme Court has ruled that the other jurisdictional bases invoked by Royal Decree 1312\/2024 do not support the regulation established for the SRR procedure either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What is the scope of the annulment? Practical implications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\/ The annulment applies exclusively to the <strong>Single Rental Registry procedure<\/strong>. The ruling <strong>does not extend to<\/strong> the other provisions of Royal Decree 1312\/2024 relating to the single digital rental window, the data transmission obligations of online platforms, or the transmission of data for statistical purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\/&nbsp; <strong>Short-term accommodation hosts<\/strong> are now free from the obligation to obtain a Single Registry Number as a prior requirement for offering their services on online platforms, as the procedure that regulated it has been annulled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\/ The judgment reaffirms that the regulation of short-term rentals falls within the competence of the <strong>regional governments<\/strong> in the exercise of their competences in housing and tourism, limiting the State&#8217;s capacity to establish general registration requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\/ The ruling has a <strong>direct impact on the tourist rental sector<\/strong> across Spain and consolidates <strong>Toda &amp; Nel-lo<\/strong> as a leading firm in the defence of the sector&#8217;s interests before the courts, at a time of intense regulatory activity in the field of short-term rentals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Spanish Supreme Court annuls the Unique Rental Registry (RUA) procedure established by Royal Decree 1312\/2024, in a ruling obtained by Toda &#038;
