Quebec CITQ registry
Quebec’s public registry of short-term rental accommodations
Every cottage, condo, and house rented for stays of less than 31 days in Quebec must register with the CITQ since the 2023 Tourist Accommodation Act (Loi 67) came into force. This page mirrors the public Tourisme Québec registry, adds a per-municipality view, and offers a lookup tool by number.
Frequently asked questions
What is CITQ and who has to register?
CITQ (Corporation de l'industrie touristique du Québec) maintains Quebec's tourist accommodation registry. Under the 2023 Tourist Accommodation Act (Loi 67), every owner who rents a cottage, condo or house for stays of less than 31 days must obtain a CITQ number before listing on Airbnb, Vrbo, or any platform.
How do I verify a CITQ number?
Three ways: (1) enter the number in our lookup tool at reserver.ca/en/tools/citq-lookup to see a full record with city, classification and status; (2) check the official Tourisme Québec registry directly; (3) click the CITQ badge on any verified listing card.
What information about a registered short-term rental is public?
CITQ number, expiry date, classification (tourist residence, B&B, etc.), guest capacity, city and administrative region, and the operator's legal name. The civic street address and the individual owner's name are not public — Reserver.ca respects this distinction.
What if a listing doesn't show a CITQ number?
Any short-term-stay listing in Quebec (under 31 days) without a visible CITQ has been illegal since 2023. Report the listing directly to Revenu Québec via the online complaint form. Fines for operating without registration range from CA$2,500 to CA$25,000.
