Letting in Vancouver

Rules and licensing

Principal-residence only, with a city licence number that must appear in the listing, and since 2024 provincial rules extend that across British Columbia. Enforcement is active and fines are steep.

Tourist tax

8% provincial accommodation tax plus a municipal levy, collected by the platform.

How the year is shaped

June to September is the peak, with a cruise season that fills the city in shoulder weeks. Winter is quiet outside the ski traffic passing through to Whistler.

Who books here

Cruise passengers either side of a sailing, families touring the Rockies, and business travel. A parking space is worth real money here.

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.
