NY A03198

Online platforms advertising accommodations in New York dwellings for fewer than 30 consecutive days must require users to consent to disclosure of listing information to the enforcement agency.

Platforms must submit the following information before listings appear: exact physical address, host's full legal name, contact information, dwelling category (private/Class A/Class B), rent control/stabilization status, whether entire dwelling or portion is offered, and whether it is the host's primary residence.

Violations carry civil penalties of up to $1,000 for the first offense, $5,000 for the second offense, and $7,500 for third and subsequent offenses.

Exemptions apply to advertisements by household members (guests, boarders, roomers, lodgers) and temporary occupancy when permanent residents are away on personal reasons, provided no monetary compensation is involved.

Enforcement in cities with populations exceeding one million falls to the mayor's office of special enforcement; the bill takes effect 60 days after becoming law.
