- kranke155 4y agoSorry as the poster above has said they’ve been legal since 2018. I had inaccurate out of date information.
- thematrixturtle 4y agoJapan (including Tokyo) legalized short-term rentals (minpaku) in 2018. However, there are reasonably toothy licensing requirements and you're capped at 180 days per year.
