This check takes you through the first classification questions: does the matter concern the business, registration duties, guest admission or damage to property brought into the accommodation?

The result shows which information is particularly useful for a legal assessment. It does not replace an assessment of the individual contract or circumstances.

  • Booking confirmation, accommodation terms and proof of payment
  • Registration documents or information on the guest register, where relevant to the classification
  • For damage: photographs, inventory, notice to the business and documents showing the amount of loss

Legal bases
