Letting in Amsterdam
Rules and licensing
Letting is capped at 30 nights per year, limited to four guests, and requires both a registration number and a per-let notification to the city. Several central districts are closed to holiday letting entirely.
Tourist tax
One of Europe's highest, charged as a percentage of the accommodation price.
How the year is shaped
April to May for the bulbfields and King's Day, then June to September. Winter holds up better than most northern cities thanks to city breaks.
Who books here
Short two- to three-night stays, heavily weekend-weighted. Canal views command a real premium; noise from the street does the opposite.
Short-term rental rules change often and can differ by district, and building or condominium rules may restrict letting regardless of what the city permits. Treat this as orientation, not legal advice, and confirm the current position with the local authority before letting.
