Victoria has a 30-night City line and a 90-day provincial line.
Victoria requires a short-term rental licence for accommodation under 30 consecutive nights and applies its principal-dwelling eligibility rules. Provincial rules generally apply below 90 days, with principal-residence requirements, permitted secondary units and qualifying exemptions.
For rentals of 30 nights or more, the City says a Long-Term Rental Property Business Licence may be required. Check the property’s specific licensing, strata and tenancy requirements before arranging the stay.
