The Scottish tourism industry has welcomed a six month extension for existing operators to apply for short-term let licenses.
Existing short-term let hosts and operators will now have more time to apply for a licence, after MSPs voted in favour of extending the timeframe.
This means that businesses already operating as a short-term let on or after 1 October have up until that date in 2023 to apply for a short-term let licence. New hosts still need a licence before they can start operating.
