New in 2025: Registration Requirement for Furnished Rentals

Starting in 2025, stricter rules will apply to renting out furnished properties. What many landlords don’t know: this does not just affect vacation homes – it also applies to temporary furnished rentals, shared apartments (WGs), or rooms for workers (e.g. fitters).

What landlords need to know:

• Every furnished rental over 6 months must be registered with the local registration office
• The landlord is required to provide a landlord confirmation certificate (Wohnungsgeberbescheinigung)
• Fines of up to €1,000 can apply if you fail to comply

Important:

This rule also applies to short-term furnished rentals. If you’re unsure whether your rental is affected – it’s best to check now or get professional advice.

We’re happy to advise you if you’re unsure whether your property is affected by the new law. Just get in touch – we’re here to help!
