Short-Term Rentals and Airbnb in Czechia 2026: What to Put in the Lease

Letting your flat to guests through Airbnb or Booking may be treated as subletting, breach of the purpose of the lease, or an accommodation-type arrangement — depending on who lets, to whom, and how. The contract with your landlord (or tenant) should say explicitly whether short-term paid letting is allowed.

Airbnb is not always just sublease

From the landlord–tenant angle, passing the flat to paying guests may be subletting under the Civil Code (usually requiring the owner’s consent unless the lease allows otherwise).

The host–guest relationship may resemble accommodation services rather than a classic lease. Czech case law has addressed tenants using flats for short-term platform letting — outcome depends on facts and contract wording.

Clauses to include

Explicitly allow or prohibit short-term paid letting (including platforms).

Rules on number of guests, noise, keys, cleaning, liability for damage, and compliance with house rules / SVJ.

For OAMP residence proof, a standard lease (nájem) with the owner is usually safer than an undocumented sublease chain.

Czech contract + English translation annex

For rental agreements, the PDF contains the primary Czech lease first, then an explanatory English annex.

The annex helps you understand clauses before signing; it is not a certified translation for authorities.
