Short Term Rentals Registration

The short-term rental regulation is based on Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 547, Licensing and Registration of Short-Term Rentals. A short-term rental is all or part of a dwelling unit rented out for less than 28 consecutive days in exchange for payment. This includes bed and breakfasts (B&Bs) but excludes hotels and motels. It also excludes other accommodations where there is no payment.

Short-term rental operators are people renting their homes or rooms on a short-term basis, for a period of less than 28 consecutive days. These operators need to register with the City in order to operate in Toronto. This dataset contains all short-term rental active registration numbers issued from the City of Toronto, address, unit, first 3 digits of the postal code, property type, ward number and, ward name. This information was collected from the registration process and the issuance of an approved short-term rental operator registration number.

The information will be used by short-term rental companies to enhance the operator verification process and ensure that all listings have valid registration numbers, as well as improve transparency in the program. This information is updated on a daily basis.
