Host responsibly with Airbnb's industry-first Code of Conduct

To help develop norms and best practices for the short-term rental accommodation sector in Malaysia, we developed an industry-first Code of Conduct to help you and your guests outline responsibilities and common courtesies.
“Airbnb’s Code of Conduct sets the bar high for short-term rental accommodation and providers, by providing clear guidelines and best practices for owners, hosts and guests. It reinforces Airbnb’s ongoing commitment to promoting cleaner, safer and more responsible travel here in Malaysia.”- Ivan Chong, President Malaysian Vacation Rental Services Management Association (MVR)

Airbnb’s proposed reference by-laws for short-term rentals in strata buildings

We’ve partnered with legal professionals Messrs. Zaid Ibrahim & Co. (In association with KPMG Law) to develop reference by-laws that help you and your building manage STRA activity.These by-laws equip you with the necessary knowledge to have informed discussions with your Joint Management Bodies (JMBs) and Management Corporations (MCs). They provide a clear framework for managing STRA activities in strata buildings, covering aspects such as obtaining necessary approvals, ensuring safety compliance, and managing guest registrations.
