Tourist lease service in Sicily

Do you have an empty apartment and would you like to make an income out of it, or make it a holiday home? By continuing to read this text, you will find out what the tourist lease in Sicily consists of. The tourist lease covers a property or a part of it for a period not exceeding 30 days.

The agreement is concluded simply between the parties who usually also agree online and the acceptance of the online offer therefore represents the moment of acceptance of the contract by the tourist, a written contract is not required, necessary only if the rental exceeds the 30 days.

We must not confuse the tourist rental with the B&B: in the B&B additional services are provided to the tourist, such as breakfast or change of sheets. In the tourist rental, on the other hand, only the accommodation is provided, without additional services such as the change of linen.

Furthermore, there are no rules that prohibit entering into an agreement with the bar near the house to have breakfast. If the lease is short and therefore does not exceed 30 days, it is not necessary to enter into a contract between the parties.

The agreement is finalized when the tourist accepts the online offer. But if the lease should last more than 30 days, then a written contract and its registration with the Revenue Agency is required. Since this is not an entrepreneurial activity, a VAT number or registration with the Chamber of Commerce is not required.

The tourist lease in Sicily to be defined as non-entrepreneurial must respect the nature of the occasional nature. The legislation indicates how long the tourist lease must be inactive. For example, some regions require 90 days of inactivity a year, others 100, others 120 days of a year. If, on the other hand, the leasing activity is continuous, at that point it is no longer occasional but entrepreneurial.
