It depends on the property type and how it is used. In Rent Pressure Zones (RPZs), whole-home short-term letting of a property that is not your principal private residence can require change-of-use planning permission. Home sharing, where you rent a room while living in the property, generally carries lower planning risk. If your property is operated as a dedicated short-let rather than your main home, you should confirm planning status before continuing. Registration with Failte Ireland from May 2026 is separate from planning permission and does not replace it.
