Short-term rental permit rules in Galloway Township, NJ — also called Airbnb permits, vacation rental licenses, or STR registration — list the application steps, fees, and operating requirements for hosting.
Galloway has no separate short-term-rental permit, but every rental unit must be registered and hold a rental certificate of occupancy under Chapter 276 before it can be legally rented.
Galloway Township does not run a dedicated Airbnb/STR licensing program. Instead, any dwelling rented to others falls under Chapter 276 (Rental Property): the owner must register the unit with the Construction Office and obtain a rental certificate of occupancy after an inspection confirming the dwelling is fit for habitation with no life-safety hazards. Owner-occupied two-unit premises are excluded. Short-term hosts should confirm zoning allowance and whether the use resembles a hotel/motel (Chapter 224) with the Community Development office before advertising.
Renting an unregistered unit violates Chapter 276; fines run from $100 to $2,000 per violation, with each unit and each day treated as a separate offense.
