Affitti brevi, sì ad alcune forme di self check-in

📅 Before Easter, the Viminale will admit additional systems for recognizing short-term rental customers, supplementing in-person identification. The meeting with Minister Piantedosi, category representatives Aigo, Aigab, and platforms Airbnb, Booking and Expedia, led to the announcement by Aigab President Marco Celani of a new directive to integrate the one from November 18, detailing various technological tools. Biometric readers and OTP codes are considered for self check-in. The sector's struggle with the Viminale began after the November decision requiring in-person recognition. Short-term rentals in Italy have a market value of €66 billion, with a €10 billion increase from 2023, although listings dropped by 11% to 66,660 in March from 75,000 in January. Florence saw a 20% decrease. The Cin introduction affected listings; out of 612,758 registered properties, only 85% (520,848) were compliant, mirroring the decrease in listings.
