Full Breakdown
Las Vegas Municipal Code defines a short-term rental as a residential dwelling rented for fewer than 31 consecutive days. Stays of 31 days or more are governed by Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 118A, the Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, and do not require a Title 6.85 STR license, the 660-foot buffer check, or the transient lodging tax registration tied to short-term stays. Hosts using monthly furnished rentals as an alternative to nightly bookings must still comply with zoning, business-license rules for furnished rentals, and standard tenant protections, including formal eviction procedures.
Violations & Fines
Marketing a property as a 31-plus-day rental while accepting shorter bookings is treated as an unlicensed STR and can incur fines, license denial for two years, and abatement orders.
