Planning to stay in Dubai holiday homes? Know more by just scanning a QR code

Dubai: Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) today announced the launch of a new QR Code initiative for holiday homes in Dubai. The move comes as part of efforts to improve transparency and increase confidence among investors and visitors in the short-term rental market. As part of the initiative, owners of holiday homes will now be required to display a QR code on the main entrances of their vacation properties in Dubai. This code enables visitors and guests to conveniently scan it and access essential information about the operator of the holiday home and the relevant contact details for DET. The move will also facilitate oversight and inspections conducted by the Dubai Corporation for Consumer Protection and Fair Trade, part of DET, ensuring strict compliance with procedures. DET’s Dubai Business License Corporation will oversee the implementation of the QR Code project, which will further enhance the city’s diverse hospitality infrastructure catering to the varied preferences and budgets of international travellers. “To ensure the effective governance of the holiday homes segment, we are introducing QR codes, as a part of the ongoing digital transformation process across customer and visitor touchpoints in the city,” said Shaikha Al Mutawa, Director of Hospitality
