Russia's Southern Regions Launch Pilot Scheme to Legalize Guest Houses by 2025
A pilot scheme to legalise guest houses will launch in southern Russia on November 1, 2025. The experiment covers nine regions, including Krasnodar, Rostov, and the Republics of Adygea and Dagestan. Authorities aim to bring order to the tourist market while improving safety for visitors.
The two-year trial runs until December 31, 2027, under federal law No. 127. This law regulates small accommodation providers, requiring them to register officially. Around 4,700 guest houses in Krasnodar alone must comply with the new rules.
To participate, owners must submit an application and provide a property extract from Rosreestr. A compliance inspection follows before approval. Once registered, each guest house receives a unique identification number and is listed in a national database. Unregistered operators will face restrictions. Advertising or running a guest house without approval will be banned during the experiment.
The scheme targets unregulated tourism accommodation across multiple regions. By enforcing registration, officials hope to reduce risks for travellers and create a more transparent sector. The results of the pilot will shape future nationwide regulations.
