A short-term rental is a rental of 30 consecutive days or less, not including a bed and breakfast. The conditions are a valid licence, one onsite parking space, and a building with a valid residential building permit. No patron may stay within the same dwelling for more than 30 days in a calendar year.\n\nThe Zoning Bylaw sets no guest or bedroom limit.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. Call the District office at 250-395-2434 to confirm which licence applies to you.\n2. Apply for a business licence (see business-licence). The fee for Bed and Breakfast / Short Term Rentals is $120, then $80 to renew.\n3. Display the licence in the sales or reception area (Business License Bylaw s. 8.16).\n4. Check the Province's rules. Each short-term rental unit needs its own registration number under the Province's registry, and the Province's page does not list 100 Mile House on either list as of June 1, 2026. Confirm with the Province's Short-Term Rental Registry.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- The [Business License Bylaw No. 1407](https://www.100milehouse.com/sites/default/files/2026-08/BL%20bylaw.pdf) exempts renting not more than 2 rooms, which may conflict with the zoning requirement for a licence. Check with the District.\n- Carrying on business without a licence: a bylaw notice is $125 if paid within 14 days, $250 in 15 to 28 days, and $275 after 28 days. Zoning rows for prohibited or non-permitted uses are $250, $500 and $525. No row names the short-term rental section.","sources":[{"url":"https://www.100milehouse.com/sites/default/files/2026-11/Zoning%20Bylaw%20No.%201466%2C%202026%20-%20CONSOLIDATED.pdf","title":"Zoning Bylaw No. 1466, 2026 (PDF), District of 100 Mile House","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://www.100milehouse.com/sites/default/files/2026-08/BL%20bylaw.pdf","title":"Business License Bylaw No. 1407, 2023 (PDF), District of 100 Mile House","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://www.100milehouse.com/sites/default/files/2026-04/Bylaw%201434%20Fees%20%20Charges%20Consolidated.pdf","title":"Fees and Charges Bylaw No. 1434, 2024, Schedule D (PDF), District of 100 Mile House","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://www.100milehouse.com/sites/default/files/2026-09/2026_Sept_8_Regular_Agenda_PKG_2.pdf","title":"Council agenda package, September 8, 2026 (PDF), District of 100 Mile House","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/housing-tenancy/short-term-rentals/principal-residence-requirement","title":"Short-term rentals, principal residence requirement, Province of B.C.","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 6 of 6 facts was matched to the official text."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/100-mile-house/short-term-rental/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/100-mile-house/short-term-rental.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/100-mile-house/short-term-rental.json"}}
