Some Restrictions

ADUs rented long-term (30+ days) in Miami face no zoning-based restrictions. Short-term rentals (under 30 days) are sharply restricted: in T3 single-family transect zones, City of Miami STR ordinance §2-1100 prohibits non-owner-occupied vacation rentals. Florida Statute §509.032(7) preempts local STR licensing but allows registration.

Miami FAQ

Can I rent my Miami ADU as an Airbnb?

It depends on your transect zone. In T3 single-family zones, only if the property is your primary residence. In T4, T5, T6 mixed-use zones, with a City Certificate of Use, registration, and tourist tax collection. Florida law preempts an outright ban but allows registration.

What taxes do I have to collect on a Miami STR?

Florida sales tax (6%), Miami-Dade Tourist Development Tax (3%), and Miami-Dade Convention Development Tax (1%) — 10% total — collected from the guest and remitted. Long-term rentals (30+ days) are exempt from these transient taxes.

What is the long-term rental rule?

Rentals of 30 or more consecutive days face no special City of Miami licensing. Standard Florida landlord-tenant law (Chapter 83) applies, and the unit must be a permitted ADU under Miami 21.
