The Municipality of Maiori is taking a decisive step toward transparency and urban decorum in the non-hotel sector. Pursuant to Legislative Decree 145/2023 (Advance Payments Decree), the municipal administration has begun the operational phase for displaying the CIN (National Identification Code) , introducing an important innovation: the provision of uniform display plates.
A choice between legality and urban decorum

National legislation is clear: anyone who manages real estate units for tourism purposes or accommodation facilities is obliged to display the CIN outside the building and to indicate it in every online advertisement.
To avoid a "do-it-yourself" aesthetic that could damage the visual harmony of this pearl of the Amalfi Coast, the Municipality of Maiori has chosen the path of uniformity. With Resolution No. 159 of August 1, 2025 , the Authority has arranged for the production of official license plates for operators registered on the PayTourist portal as of July 30, 2025.
The connection between tourist tax and services
The introduction of the CIN is part of a broader plan to enhance the local area, which began with the tourist tax (Legislative Decree 23/2011). These tools are not just bureaucratic burdens, but also represent the driving force for:
Countering irregular forms of hospitality.
Ensure territorial security and data coordination.
Reinvest in excellent tourism services, keeping Maiori among the most competitive destinations on the Amalfi Coast.

What are the risks for those who do not display the CIN?

The initiative by the Municipality of Maiori makes it easier for property managers to fulfill this obligation, while also ensuring compliance with urban planning and landscape restrictions.
Note to managers: The plaque is not only a legal requirement, but also a certificate of professionalism and transparency towards guests, guaranteeing they are staying in a registered and safe property.
