Administrative digitalisation also affects tourist-use home owners. On 29 June 2026, Canal Empresa announced new dynamic web forms to make tourism-establishment procedures easier.
What changed?
The forms allow data to be entered directly online, reuse certain information linked to an address or registration and, where applicable, submit documentation within the same form.
Tourist homes are included
The update expressly covers start of activity, change of holder, amendments and cancellation for tourist-use homes. The official information provides the current update date for these procedures.
Practical benefit: a more structured digital procedure can reduce formal errors, but it does not remove the need to meet the planning and tourism requirements that apply to the property.
Change of holder
When a property is transferred or the person responsible for the activity changes, do not simply update commercial information. Check which administrative procedure applies and keep proof of submission.
Documentation still matters
Better forms do not remove subsequent administrative checks. Authorities may verify declared information and, where appropriate, request or inspect supporting documentation.
2026 checklist
- Always use the current form version.
- Check that property data matches the supporting documents.
- Keep submission receipts and procedure numbers.
- Keep tourism procedures separate from planning licences where the latter are required.
