Is it legal to share an apartment?

If you want to operate legally, you have to go through the same procedures as opening a hotel. To open a hotel, you need to apply for a business license at the industrial and commercial office, a fire safety certificate at the fire station, a health certificate at the health bureau, and a food circulation permit for food. It is also necessary to go to the public security bureau for filing, install software and hardware for scanning and uploading hotel accommodation personnel's certificates, and install monitoring. The storage capacity of surveillance video should be at least 1 month.

Anyway, whether you are legal or not, safety is definitely the first, and fire safety is the most important, so you must go through the formalities of fire safety inspection. If you don't go to the public security bureau for the record, the public security bureau in your jurisdiction will come to you, that's for sure. As for the requirements for obtaining a business license, you can consult the local industrial and commercial bureau, and people will tell you.

You can also choose not to go through the above procedures and not to claim to be like a hotel. It's just rented out. Let's be the landlord.

If it's a day-rent type, and the turnover of personnel is relatively large, it is recommended to go through the relevant formalities like a regular hotel, otherwise it will always be found out if it can't be avoided from the 15 th day of the first year.
