A new regulation now mandates that household members notify local residence management authorities when hosting overnight guests.
If the host is unavailable, the guest is responsible for reporting their stay to the authorities.
Compliance requires individuals to visit their local residence management authority, typically a police station, in person to register accommodation details.
Starting July 1st, household members must report any overnight stays by family or friends. Illustration generated by AI.
The notification must include the guest’s full name, date of birth, personal identification or passport number, reason for stay, duration, and accommodation address.
Notifications must be submitted by 11 PM on the day of arrival; for late arrivals after 11 PM, submissions are due by 8 AM the following day.
