Almost 1,500 Holiday Accommodations in the Balearic Islands Not in the Ecotasa Register – What Landlords Should Do Now

Answer

Why are some holiday rentals in Mallorca being checked for Ecotasa registration now?

The Balearic authorities compared licence data with the Ecotasa register and found holiday accommodations that appear to be licensed but not properly recorded for the tourist tax. That can lead to retroactive registration and, in some cases, claims for unpaid amounts. The issue is especially relevant for owners who assumed their registration was already in order.
