A free channel manager for individual Airbnb hosts in Italy
A free channel manager for an Italian host runs alongside the CIN (Codice Identificativo Nazionale), a mandatory national code displayed in every ad and physically at the property, with non-display fines from €500 to €5,000 and full non-registration fines reaching €8,000. getfursat's free tier syncs Airbnb, Booking.com and Agoda once you're registered; it doesn't obtain the CIN for you.
Italian short lets sell mainly through Airbnb and Booking.com. The CIN system exists specifically to let tax and tourism authorities match every listing back to a real registered owner, addressing a long-standing under-declaration problem in the Italian market.
CIN is obtained by registering the property in the Ministry of Tourism's database via SPID or CIE, then must be displayed in every online and offline advertisement and physically at the property itself. Failure to display carries fines from €500 to €5,000, and hosts who missed the original registration window risk fines up to €8,000 plus listing removal. From May 2026, EU Regulation 2024/1028 requires platforms to verify CIN codes monthly and automatically remove non-compliant listings.
The CIN requirement has two separate display obligations, online in every ad and physically at the property, so a host who dutifully adds the code to their Airbnb listing but forgets the physical posting requirement is still non-compliant, a distinction most single-registration-number markets on this list don't have.
What is Italy's CIN code and do I need one?
CIN (Codice Identificativo Nazionale) is a mandatory national code for every short-term rental, obtained by registering the property in the Ministry of Tourism's database via SPID or CIE. It must be displayed in every advertisement and physically at the property.
What happens if I don't display my Italian CIN code?
Fines range from €500 to €5,000 for failing to display it in ads or at the property; hosts who missed the original registration deadline risk fines up to €8,000 and listing removal.
Does Airbnb check my CIN code automatically in Italy?
From May 2026, yes. EU Regulation 2024/1028 requires platforms including Airbnb to verify CIN codes monthly and automatically remove listings that fail verification.
