According to Article 7.2, this registration form must be sent to the Police or Guardia Civil for each guest over 16 years of age within 24 hours of the accommodation, following the security laws of 2003 (Order INT/1922/2003 of July 3 on book-registration) and 2015.

To comply with the Vacation Rental registration with the Junta de Andalucia, your property needs to comply with the following points:

Police registration of guests: 

In addition to the VFT code, police codes are also required, as Spanish government Order INT / 1922 / 2003 states that the property must be registered in the Guardia Civil or National Police system, so each time you have a tenant you use these codes to enter the tenant's details and passport. 

All guests must complete and sign a registration form upon entry. According to Article 7.2, this registration form for any guest over the age of 16 must be sent to the police or Guardia Civil within 24 hours of the accommodation.
