Terre Haute

Terre Haute requires all short-term rentals to register annually with the city's rental registry and comply with safe and habitable housing standards.

If you host an Airbnb or short-term rental in Terre Haute, you must register your property with the city's Engineering Department every year. There is a small $5 annual fee due by January 31, and your property must meet basic safety standards like working smoke detectors and safe electrical systems. While routine inspections are not required for registration, the city may inspect your unit if a complaint is filed or a safety issue is reported.
