Airbnb Guests and Breach of Right of Peaceful Possession in Tilburg: Tenants' Responsibilities
In Tilburg, where vacation rentals via Airbnb are popular among students and visitors to the Korte Heuvel and Spoorzone, as a tenant you risk claims of breach of right of peaceful possession if guests linger after the booking. Uninvited guests themselves commit breach of right of peaceful possession according to the law.
Rules for Temporary Rental in Tilburg
- Check your lease agreement: most landlords in Tilburg explicitly prohibit subletting.
- Report your rental to the municipality of Tilburg via the online portal; permit required for more than 30 nights per year, with stricter rules since the Tilburg Housing Ordinance 2023.
- Guests: demand the key back upon departure and document everything with check-in/check-out forms.
In Case of Nuisance in Tilburg
First send a written demand to vacate, followed by police involvement. Article 138 Sr applies to paying guests after the end of the contract. The Supreme Court (2022) confirms: the landlord remains the rightful owner, but the Airbnb tenant may themselves demand eviction. In Tilburg, the neighborhood police often intervene upon reports in districts such as the City Center or Oud-Zuid.
Tip: file a complaint with the Airbnb platform if guests refuse and report illegal subletting to the municipality to avoid fines up to €21,750. Tilburg actively enforces with inspectors.
Rent smartly in Tilburg, protect your right to peaceful possession and enjoy the city without legal headaches.
