Your home

Can You Host an Airbnb in Maine? It Depends on the Home

Whether you can host in Maine turns on whose home it is and whether you live there.

Your own home, rented whole while you're away

Allowed with conditions

Allowed statewide with the Maine Revenue Services registration and the 9% tax. Portland has no cap on owner-occupied rentals but requires a registration; Bar Harbor registers it as a VR-1 with a two-night minimum; many towns have no rule.6,9,14,15

A room in your home with you present

Allowed

A private home that lets not more than five rooms is not a licensed lodging place, but posts a card in each room saying so and gives guests the notice at check-in. The 9% tax and any town registration still apply.2,9

A second home or investment property you don't live in

Allowed with conditions

Allowed in most towns. Portland caps non-owner-occupied mainland rentals at 293 units for 2026 and keeps a waitlist; Bar Harbor caps whole-home VR-2 registrations at 9% of dwelling units and requires a four-night minimum; Old Orchard Beach licenses each unit.6,7,14,15,18

A rented apartment (tenant hosting)

Allowed with conditions

State law does not bar it, but the lease controls. Portland accepts no new tenant-occupied short-term rental registrations for 2026; existing registrants who renew each year keep theirs.6,14

A condo or home in an association

Allowed with conditions

In Portland a condominium or association unit needs an attestation from the association, with a copy of its governing documents, that short-term rental is allowed. Check the association's rules in any town.14

A home in the unorganized territories

Allowed with conditions

Allowed where homes are allowed; the owner files a free notice with the Land Use Planning Commission and no Commission permit is required.12,13

Permit

Do You Need a License for Airbnb in Maine?

Yes. Maine hosts need the Town or city short-term rental registration or license from town or city where the home stands; Maine Revenue Services for the sales tax; the Land Use Planning Commission (notice only) in the unorganized territories. It costs $0.2,6,7,9,10,12,13,15,16,18

Who needs it
Every host registers with Maine Revenue Services to charge the 9% sales tax, unless the only rental is a single unit rented fewer than 15 days a year. A town or city registration is required only in towns with an ordinance, such as Portland, Bar Harbor and Old Orchard Beach.2,6,7,9,10,12,13,15,16,18
Issued by
The town or city where the home stands; Maine Revenue Services for the sales tax; the Land Use Planning Commission (notice only) in the unorganized territories
Valid for
Maine Revenue Services retailer certificates do not expire. Town registrations are annual: Portland renewals are due December 31 and Bar Harbor registrations renew by May 31.
On listings
The number must appear on every listing
Platform checks
Portland requires booking services to include the city registration number in every listing, and Bar Harbor requires the number in all advertising. Statewide, Airbnb collects and remits the 9% sales tax on the host's behalf.

Who qualifies

  • No state license: vacation rentals are exempt from the Department of Health and Human Services lodging-place license
  • Portland: owner-occupied rentals have no cap; non-owner-occupied mainland rentals are capped at 1.5% of registered long-term rentals
  • Bar Harbor: VR-1 for the owner's primary residence; VR-2 for a home the owner does not live in, capped at 9% of dwelling units
  • Old Orchard Beach: a residential rental license for every rental unit, with an inspection
  • Unorganized territories: a free notice to the Land Use Planning Commission; no permit

How to apply

  1. Check whether your town or city has a short-term rental ordinance; if it does, apply to its code enforcement or licensing office and pass any required inspection.
  2. Register as a retailer with Maine Revenue Services (free) before renting, unless your only rental is one unit rented fewer than 15 days a year.
  3. In the unorganized territories, file the free short-term rental notice with the Land Use Planning Commission online, by mail or by email.
  4. File the Maine sales tax return by the 15th of each month for the month before, unless Maine Revenue Services has put you on a less frequent schedule.

Permit rules

Permits are set locally
Permits, zoning, safety and health rules come from the governments that regulate the property's location, so a host checks the state, town and any county or planning-commission rules before listing.23
No state license for vacation rentals
Maine does not license vacation rentals as lodging places: the state license that applies to hotels, inns and bed and breakfasts does not apply to a vacation rental.2
Four or more units at one site is a lodging place
Properties under common management with four or more rooms, cottages or condominium units at the same location are lodging places that need a state license from the Department of Health and Human Services.3 Applies to: Hosts with several units on one site
Register with Maine Revenue Services
Anyone renting living quarters in Maine registers as a retailer with Maine Revenue Services, including owners who rent only on a casual basis and platforms that arrange the rental.9
Retailer registration is free
Maine Revenue Services charges no fee for the retailer registration, and the certificate does not expire.10
Platform bookings are reported as exempt sales
A registered host who rents through a platform such as Airbnb still files a sales tax return, and reports those bookings as exempt sales because the platform collects the tax; direct bookings are reported as taxable.9
Advertised price must show the total
A person advertising or renting short-term lodging in Maine must disclose the total price, including any mandatory fee, show it more prominently than other pricing, and not misrepresent any fee. The Attorney General enforces the law, and a violation is an unfair and deceptive act.5,11
Federal rule: total price including mandatory fees
Since May 12, 2025 a federal rule requires any advertised price for a short-term rental to show the total price, including mandatory fees; taxes and other government charges may be shown separately.1,8 In force since May 12, 2025
Unorganized territories: file a notice with the LUPC
Anyone operating or planning to operate a short-term rental in the Land Use Planning Commission's service area (the unorganized territories and some towns and plantations) must file a notice from January 12, 2026. Rentals operating before that date had until July 11, 2026. No Commission permit is required.12,13 Applies to: Land Use Planning Commission service area · In force since January 12, 2026
Portland: registration number in every listing
Portland requires every short-term rental to register with the city each year, and booking services must show the registration number in every advertisement or listing before accepting payment.6,14 Applies to: Portland
Bar Harbor: annual registration and inspection
Every short-term rental in Bar Harbor registers with the town each year before renting, passes an inspection before the registration card is issued, and is re-inspected every three years. The registration number must appear in all advertising.7,15 Applies to: Bar Harbor · In force since December 18, 2025
Old Orchard Beach: rental license for each unit
Old Orchard Beach requires a residential rental license, approved by the town council after inspection, before a short-term rental operates; the fee is $25 per unit per year plus a $500 non-refundable application fee.18 Applies to: Old Orchard Beach

Who can host

What Maine Cities and Counties Can and Can't Regulate

Towns may regulate short-term rentals
State law lets a municipality establish and enforce regulations on short-term rental units, so registration, caps and bans vary from town to town; the state does not override local rules.4
Unorganized territories: allowed wherever homes are allowed
In the Commission's service area a short-term rental is an allowed use in any zoning subdistrict where residential dwellings or residential campsites are allowed.12 Applies to: Land Use Planning Commission service area · In force since January 12, 2026
Portland: non-owner-occupied rentals capped at 1.5%
Portland limits non-owner-occupied mainland short-term rentals to 1.5% of the registered long-term rentals in the prior year, set each September 1; the limit for 2026 is 293 units. Existing registrants who renew on time keep their licenses.6,14 Applies to: Portland · In force since September 1, 2025
Bar Harbor: owner's home (VR-1) or capped whole homes (VR-2)
Bar Harbor registers a rental of the owner's primary residence as a VR-1 (two-night minimum) and an entire home the owner does not live in as a VR-2 (four-night minimum). VR-2 registrations are capped at 9% of the town's residential dwelling units, with a waitlist.7,15,17 Applies to: Bar Harbor

Operating rules

Operating Rules for Maine Short-Term Rentals

What counts as a vacation rental
State law defines a vacation rental as a residential property rented for vacation, leisure or recreation, typically under 30 days and never for more than an entire summer or winter season, to a guest whose permanent residence is elsewhere.3
Private homes renting up to five rooms post a notice
A private home that lets not more than five rooms is not a licensed lodging place, but must post a card in each rented room saying the place is not regulated by the Department of Health and Human Services, and give guests the same notice at check-in.2 Applies to: Private homes letting rooms
One unit rented under 15 days a year is exempt
A person with a single rental unit that is rented fewer than 15 days in a calendar year is not a retailer and does not register or collect the tax; an agent or platform handling the rental still collects it.9 Applies to: Casual renters
Cleaning and pet fees are taxed
The 9% tax applies to the whole amount billed for the stay, including cleaning, pet and damage fees that are part of the rental, whether or not they are shown separately.9
Stays of 28 days or more can be exempt
Rent for a continuous stay of 28 days or more is exempt from the sales tax when the home is the guest's primary residence, or the guest is away from home for education or work.9 Applies to: Long stays
Unorganized territories: notice costs nothing
The Commission treats a rental of fewer than 30 consecutive days as a short-term rental, limits the category to one dwelling unit or campsite per lot (unless the lot is a condominium), and charges nothing to file the notice.12,13 Applies to: Land Use Planning Commission service area · In force since January 12, 2026
Portland: two guests per bedroom plus two
Overnight guests in a Portland short-term rental are limited to two per bedroom plus no more than two additional guests.6 Applies to: Portland

Fines

How to Avoid Airbnb Fines in Maine

Fines in Maine fall on hosting without the approvals described above, or outside the rules. With them in hand and the rules followed, none of the fines below apply.

  • Bar Harbor: a minimum fine of $1,500 for operating without a valid registration; after a second violation within a year the owner cannot register for 12 months and then only after paying a $3,000 fine, and the town may add a penalty of three times the average nightly rate for each day of unlawful operation.7
  • Portland: providing false information on a short-term rental registration carries a $1,000 penalty; renting an unregistered unit or failing to display the registration number is a violation of the city code.6
  • Misrepresenting a fee or hiding mandatory fees in a short-term lodging price is an unfair and deceptive act enforced by the Maine Attorney General.5
  • Federal fee rule: businesses that violate the FTC fee rule can be ordered to comply, refund consumers and pay civil penalties.8

FAQ

Maine Short-Term Rental Laws: Frequently Asked Questions

Is Airbnb legal in Maine?

Yes. Maine has no statewide ban or host license, and vacation rentals are exempt from the state lodging-place license. Towns may regulate short-term rentals, so Portland, Bar Harbor and Old Orchard Beach require registration or a license while many towns have no rule.2,4,6,15,18

Do I need a permit for Airbnb in Maine?

Not from the state. You register as a retailer with Maine Revenue Services (free) to charge the 9% sales tax, and you register or get a license from your town only if it has an ordinance. In the unorganized territories you file a free notice with the Land Use Planning Commission instead of a permit.9,10,12,13

Does Airbnb collect lodging tax in Maine?

Yes. Airbnb collects the 9% Maine sales tax on the listing price, including cleaning fees and guest fees, for all reservations. Hosts still register with Maine Revenue Services and file a return, reporting Airbnb bookings as exempt sales.9,24

What is the lodging tax rate in Maine?

9% sales tax on the rental of living quarters, applied to the whole price including cleaning and pet fees. Stays of 28 days or more can be exempt when the home is the guest's primary residence. Airbnb lists no separate county or city lodging tax for Maine.9,24

How much does a short-term rental registration cost in Maine?

The state charges nothing: the Maine Revenue Services registration and the Land Use Planning Commission notice are free. Towns set their own fees: Bar Harbor charges $275 a year, Portland $100 for a first owner-occupied unit or $200 for a first non-owner-occupied mainland unit, and Old Orchard Beach $25 per unit plus a $500 application fee.6,10,13,16,18

Can I rent a home I don't live in on Airbnb in Maine?

Often yes, but some towns cap it. Portland limits non-owner-occupied mainland rentals to 293 units for 2026, and Bar Harbor caps whole-home VR-2 registrations at 9% of dwelling units with a waitlist. Many towns have no limit.6,7,14,15,17

Is there a night cap or minimum stay for Airbnb in Maine?

The state sets none. Bar Harbor requires a two-night minimum for an owner's primary residence (VR-1) and four nights for a whole home the owner does not live in (VR-2); Portland has no night cap but limits non-owner-occupied units.6,15

What is the fine for hosting without a registration in Maine?

The state sets no host fine; each town does. Bar Harbor's minimum fine is $1,500, rising to a $3,000 fine before re-registering after a second violation within a year. Portland fines false registration information $1,000.6,7

Do I need a state lodging license for an Airbnb in Maine?

No. State law excludes vacation rentals from the lodging-place license. A property under common management with four or more rooms, cottages or condominium units at one location is a lodging place and is licensed by the Department of Health and Human Services.2,3

What if my rental is in the Maine unorganized territories?

File a free short-term rental notice with the Land Use Planning Commission. It has been required since January 12, 2026 (existing rentals had until July 11, 2026), and no Commission permit is needed because short-term rentals are allowed wherever homes are allowed.12,13

Does the advertised price have to include the cleaning fee in Maine?

Mandatory fees must be in the price shown. Maine law requires a short-term lodging advertisement to show the total price, including any mandatory fee, more prominently than other pricing, and a federal rule has required the same since May 12, 2025; taxes may be shown separately.1,5,8

Do I need to show a registration number on my Maine listing?

Where the town issues one, yes. Portland requires booking services to include the registration number in every listing before accepting payment, and Bar Harbor requires the number in all advertising.6,7

Method

How These Rules Were Checked

Each rule on this page was checked in October 2026 against the official source cited beside it: the ordinance or statute, the permit office's own pages and the tax authority. Airbnb's help pages are cited on their own only for what Airbnb itself does, such as the taxes it collects and the permit checks it runs, and otherwise only beside an official source; news reports only for when a change was announced. Rules that could not be confirmed on an official page are left out. The Portland city short-term rental page was read in a browser; the Portland rules are also quoted from the city code amendment PDF.

Rules change with council votes, court rulings and new state laws, so the page is rechecked every three months and whenever a scheduled change takes effect. It summarizes the rules for information and is not legal advice; the state agency and your city or county has the final word on any application.
