Selecting the Right Minpaku Track in Tokyo

There are three legal frameworks for operating vacation rentals in Tokyo. The optimal path depends on zoning laws, building bylaws, and expected occupancy patterns.

Housing Accommodation Business Act (Minpaku Act)

Up to 180 days / year

Notification-based. Host-absent rentals must delegate management to a licensed manager like StayJP. Used widely across all 23 wards.

Special Zone Minpaku (Tokku Minpaku)

No annual limit

Applicable only in designated areas such as Ota Ward. Minimum stay is 2 nights and 3 days.

Ryokan Business Act (Simple Lodging)

No annual limit

Requires public health center license, specific fire safety equipment, and compliant zoning. Best for year-round high-occupancy operations.

Tokyo Minpaku Management FAQ

1. Can I operate minpaku in an apartment/condominium?

It is possible only if the condominium association bylaws explicitly permit vacation rentals under the Housing Accommodation Business Act. We require owners to check their building bylaws directly or through specialists before starting.

2. What if I want to operate more than 180 days per year?

While the Minpaku Act limits operations to 180 days, you can run year-round if the property is in a Special Zone or by acquiring a Ryokan Act (Simple Lodging) license. StayJP can assess feasibility and recommend the best track.

3. Will I incur cancellation fees if I switch to StayJP from another manager?

This depends on your current contract. StayJP designs a transition timeline to avoid any vacancy gap, and can coordinate the onboarding process.

4. Can I request management for a leased/rented property?

Yes, provided the lease agreement explicitly permits subleasing and vacation rental operations. Sublease consent must be acquired by the owner directly or through specialists.

5. I inherited a vacant house but have no experience. Can I outsource everything?

Yes, vacant property revitalization is one of our most common inquiries. StayJP manages OTA operations, cleaning, and guest communication post-launch. For renovations and license filings, we refer you to our network of qualified specialists.
