Stricter legislation for Airbnb rentals in Lyon
The compensation principle for obtaining change-of-use authorizations takes effect on June 1, 2022, for the entire Lyon metropolitan area.
Following the meeting of the Lyon Metropolitan Permanent Commission on March 25, 2022, stricter regulations for Airbnb rentals were decided. These new rules take effect on June 1, 2022, and make obtaining change-of-use authorizations for furnished tourist rentals more complex by introducing a compensation principle. Only tourist rentals in the city center and those larger than 35 square meters in the rest of Lyon are affected by this change. But what exactly does this compensation system entail?
