Folsom STR registration requires application to the Community Development Department with fees, site plan, insurance, owner/local contact info, and TOT certificate. Annual renewal required. Advertising without a valid permit number is prohibited.
The registration process typically includes: (1) STR Permit Application and fee; (2) Business License with Finance Department; (3) TOT Registration Certificate; (4) proof of owner authorization or lease with owner permission; (5) liability insurance COI; (6) local contact with 24/7 phone; (7) site/floor plan showing bedrooms and parking; (8) good-neighbor acknowledgment. Upon approval, the city issues a unique permit number that must be displayed in all online listings (Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Furnished Finder, etc.). Annual renewals require updated insurance, current contact info, and continued compliance. Some California cities actively scrape listing sites for unpermitted advertisers and issue fines — Folsom has similar authority.
Advertising without permit: $500 per listing per day. False registration info: permit revocation and misdemeanor.
