Hi community!

I’m going to begin hosting in Portugal and I know they have some requirements and I wanted to see how other hosts are using Hospitable or other software to make it easier and follow all regulations.

Hi ​@alexanderc!

We have a couple of hosts here that are based in Portugal: ​@HomeBase, ​@Barbosaluis, ​@casatamar@são, ​@vmrodrigues. Any local insights and lessons learned that can be shared? 💜

Hi folks! 
I was wondering if you used Hospitable or another software to gather the info/taxes needed to report for every guest?

Small nudge for ​@HomeBase, ​@Barbosaluis, ​@casatamar@são, ​@vmrodrigues. Any local insights and lessons learned that can be shared?

Hi ​@alexanderc ,

Due to regulation in Portugal you must both issue an official invoice (fracture) for the income and also report all check ins to SIBA/SEF for immigration reporting services. 
I use HostKit plug in on Hospitable to match these requirements and though configuring HostKit is a pain, the outcome of an automated process is really time saving.
