Title 400 CMR 4.00 - Public Registry of Lodging Operators
Section 4.03 - Registry Creation and Content

(1) EOHED shall engage the expertise of EOTSS to establish the Registry and to ensure the secure transmission of data from DOR to EOHED. The Registry shall reflect data provided to EOHED by DOR in accordance with the DULA. To the extent practicable, EOHED will request from DOR only those data intended to be included in the Registry. If DOR transfers to EOHED any data that are not intended to be included in the Registry, EOHED shall use diligent efforts to keep such data secure and private.

(2) The Registry shall list the street and municipality of each Registered Site; whether the Registered Site is classified as a Short-term rental or a Traditional Lodging Unit; and the certificate number issued by DOR for each Registered Site. EOHED may, in its discretion, format the Registry to provide separate listings of Short-term rentals and Traditional Lodging Units. The Registry shall be searchable by street name and municipality or certificate number.

(3) To the extent feasible, EOHED shall maintain and update the Registry data continuously, with such updates occurring not more than 24 hours after DOR updates source databases.
