东京的Shinjuku计划对短期旅游租赁的广泛限制

Shinjuku 向当地禁令转向

Tokyo's Shinjuku ward plans to prohibit short-term visitor accommodation in residential districts and around schools and significant cultural sites. The measure would be implemented through a revised local ordinance and could affect about 2,000 private lodgings. Shinjuku has 3,775 registered minpaku properties, the largest concentration of such rentals in Japan.

Ward officials are responding to more than 1,300 complaints recorded during the 12 months to March. Residents reported excessive noise, improper rubbish disposal, smoking in restricted places and trespassing. The administration concluded that penalties against individual operators would not sufficiently address the volume of recurring neighbourhood disruption.

议案仍有程序步骤

政策尚未完全有效。 Shinjuku计划在10月份向公众寻求反馈,并在2月份提交命令审查。 除了地理限制之外,官员还计划从180天降至120天,将其年运营补贴减少到住宅区。 最终文本、实施日期和执行安排仍要确定。

The measure comes as Japan balances record tourism income against growing local opposition to overcrowding. Visitor numbers reached a record 42 million last year, with spending also setting a new high. National authorities are targeting 60 million arrivals by 2030, while cities and destinations increasingly deploy local restrictions, visitor caps and fees to protect infrastructure and residents' quality of life.

城市政治问题问题

联合国Habitat将短期租赁视为城市政府的不断挑战,因为平台的快速增长可以超越许可、税收和执法系统。 世界城市报告指出,集中旅游租赁可能会削弱社区网络,减少长期住房供应,而旅游业仍然是就业和市政收入的重要来源。 Shinjuku的方法强调区域和运营日制,而不是城市范围的禁令。

其他日本市政府将观察该法令是否继续进行咨询,并产生更少的投诉,而不只是将租赁转移到附近地区。 最重要的下一个证据将是一个公开的限制区地图,处理现有许可证,执行资源和任何评估政策对居民,房地产所有者和合法的住宿报告的影响。
