Regulation (EU) 2024/1028

Tracking how Europe implements short-term rental data sharing.

STR Tracker follows how Member States turn the EU short-term rental regulation into registration procedures, national SDEP systems, platform reporting workflows, and technical interfaces.

The basics

What the law changes

Regulation (EU) 2024/1028 creates a harmonised framework for collecting and sharing data about short-term accommodation rentals. The practical work is national: each Member State with registration procedures needs a way for platforms to transmit data to competent authorities.

What platforms may need to do

Platforms may need to collect registration numbers, display them in listings, run checks, remove invalid listings when ordered, and report activity data through national systems.

What hosts and operators may need to do

Hosts may need to register units, maintain accurate property data, use valid registration numbers, and comply with local housing, tourism, tax, or planning rules that remain outside the EU data-sharing layer.

Why technical interoperability matters

The EU framework is common, but national APIs, identifiers, authentication, validation rules, and reporting payloads can differ. Software vendors need to track both the legal status and the implementation details.

Tracker project

Member State implementation status in one place

The first goal is public information: explain the regulation, collect official implementation signals, and show which countries have public portals, legal workflows, SDEP operators, API documentation, or no visible status yet.

Member State	Current tracker status	Priority	Summary
Netherlands	Public SDEP reference implementation	Highest technical priority	The Netherlands is the strongest technical reference case, with public SDEP API documentation and the SEMICeu reference implementation linked to SDEP Netherlands.
Spain	Advanced national implementation	High commercial priority	Spain has concrete national legal instruments, a registration workflow, platform reporting cadence, and payload fields, although no public OpenAPI implementation has been found yet.
Ireland	Authority and register confirmed	High tracking priority	Ireland has clear governance signals: Fáilte Ireland is identified as manager of the short-term letting register and Ireland's SDEP from 20 May 2026.
Italy	National CIN database live	High tracking priority	Italy has a live national BDSR/CIN accommodation database and interoperability signals, but no confirmed public SDEP API/source code has been found yet.
France	National service direction visible	High tracking priority	France has mature local furnished-tourist-rental rules and public evidence points to a dedicated national online service by 20 May 2026.
Austria	Federal SDEP responsibility confirmed	Monitor province opt-in	Austria confirms federal SDEP responsibility, but provinces decide independently whether to implement and no province is expected to initially implement by 20 May 2026.
Sweden	No national STR registration confirmed	Monitor only	Sweden currently looks like a monitoring target, not an implementation target: no public Swedish SDEP or national registration requirement has been confirmed.
Belgium	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Bulgaria	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Croatia	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Cyprus	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Czechia	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Denmark	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Estonia	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Finland	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Germany	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.

Latvia	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Lithuania	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Luxembourg	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Malta	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Poland	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Portugal	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
Romania	No public SDEP found yet	Monitor	No public source code, OpenAPI documentation, or clearly named national SDEP platform has been identified in the current research pass.
