Mandate
Short-stay hosts operating through Airbnb and comparable platforms must hold a valid licence. Tourism Fund provides the digital channel to apply, verify identity and property ownership, and issue certificates.
About Tourism Fund licensing
What we verify
- Operator identity (national ID or passport)
- KRA PIN and tax registration
- Business / trading name for KYB
- Property code, location, and ownership or lease documents
Who this is for
Individual hosts, multi-listing operators, and property management companies that advertise short-term stays in Kenya. Tier pricing scales with portfolio size so solo hosts and professional operators each have a clear path.
