Furnished accommodation
Renting your home: the rules have changed in 2026
Publié le 27 juillet 2026 - Public Service / (Prime Minister)
Do you want to rent out your main residence? You are then subject to taxation on tourist furniture. The rules resulting from the 2024 Le Meur law evolved in 2026. Public Service inform you.

The law called Le Meur of 2024 applicable to 1er january 2025 aims to strengthen the supervision of furnished tourism. The aim is to encourage permanent housing in areas where the housing market is under pressure.
In particular, it introduced an obligation for any co-owner who has declared himself as a tourist furnished rental company to inform the co-ownership trustee. On the other hand, the new condominium regulations must explicitly indicate the authorization or prohibition of rental of furnished tourism.
Mandatory rental declaration throughout France
The declaration of leasing was until now mandatory only in certain municipalities of so-called « tense » areas.
Since May 20, 2026, the declaration of rental is mandatory in all municipalities. It must be made with the town hall of the commune where the property is located, via an online service. At the end of the check-in process, you will receive a registration number which must appear on the rental advertisement and on the reservations.
Revenue ceilings applicable to the tax return
If you are a landlord, your rental income is taxable and must be reported on your annual income tax return. Furnished rentals fall under the micro-BIC speed as long as the annual turnover does not exceed the ceilings set for each rental category.
2026 income tax return on income received in 2025
The turnover ceilings are as follows:
- for furnished tourist accommodation not classified: €15,000 ;
- for furnished tourist accommodation classified: €77,700.
2027 income tax return on income received in 2026
The turnover ceilings will be as follows:
- for furnished tourist accommodation not classified: €15,000 ;
- for furnished tourist accommodation classified: €83,600.
In case of revenues exceeding these amounts, you must declare under the real profit regime.
FYI
The micro-BIC scheme allows a flat-rate reduction of:
- 30 % for unclassified tourist furnished accommodation;
- 50% for classified tourist furniture.
Reminder
Furnished accommodation is accommodation rented for a passing clientele (furnished villas, apartments or studios). Its rental period must not exceed 90 consecutive days to the same customer per calendar year (from 1er January to December 31). It is for the exclusive use of the tenant. It is offered by the day, week or month via digital platforms. And it must have certain equipment to be rented (including bedding, furniture, refrigerator).
Depending on whether they are classified or not, furnished apartments for tourism have different taxation and rules. The classification depends on the Tourism Code. It is the renter who makes the request to the competent bodies.
