Displaying your business license or permit info on your listing is essential for legal compliance, building trust, transparency, gaining a competitive edge, aiding regulatory checks, and avoiding suspicion. It boosts your rental's reputation and professionalism and reassures guests.
While it's easy to add your state and local business license/permit/registration information to your OwnerRez property descriptions, users must add that information directly on both Airbnb and Vrbo.
OwnerRez users should note that adding your state and local business license/permit/registration information into Airbnb and Vrbo will not be overwritten by the OwnerRez channel integration sync process.
Follow the instructions in Airbnb's Add rental permits to your listing help article.
If a city doesn't require a permit number, the Regulations section may or may not appear for adding a business license/permit/registration number, as this varies by city and local government. If a space is available, users can voluntarily add their permit number even if it's not required.
If a business license/permit/registration number cannot be added, users can enter it in the OwnerRez Airbnb Property Description Listing Description/Summary field as a backup option.
Vrbo
Users can log into their Vrbo Owner Dashboard and follow the instructions in Vrbo's Add or update your property registration number help article.
Vrbo supports one registration number via channel integration; however, depending on the property's location, Vrbo may require additional information.
Some users may encounter an issue where their property is inactive due to an incomplete or inactive status on Vrbo, and entering their registration number should activate their Vrbo listing.
