Where and how to exhibit the CIN

  • Where to exhibit the CIN: It must be visible outside the building where the apartment or structure is located and indicated in every advertisement published or communicated.
  • How to exhibit the CIN: It must comply with any urban planning and landscape constraints and condominium regulations. If regulations restrict the posting of signs, alternative methods are permitted, provided that the CIN is clearly visible to the public and complies with regional and provincial regulations.

Safety requirements: Fire extinguishers and gas and monoxide detectors

In addition, new safety requirements, such as well-placed gas and carbon monoxide detectors and fire extinguishers, aim to protect you and your guests. All real estate units intended for short-term rental or for tourist purposes, managed in any form (entrepreneurial and non-entrepreneurial), must be equipped with functioning devices for the detection of combustible gases and carbon monoxide as well as portable fire extinguishers in accordance with the law.

Remote check-in no longer allowed

Even if self-check-in and key boxes are no longer allowed, this is the time to strengthen the human relationship with your visitors: a smile on arrival is worth a thousand automatisms.
