Las Vegas, Nev., Mun. Code § 6.75 (2026) § 6.75.070
It is unlawful for an operator of an establishment governed by this Chapter to require that any occupant of a short-term residential rental unit pay for a greater number of days than actually occupied or requested by such occupant.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Under Las Vegas Municipal Code §§ 6.09, 6.75 § 6.75.070, operators of short-term residential rental establishments are prohibited from charging occupants for more days than the occupant actually stayed or requested. In other words, a guest can only be billed for the days they genuinely used or asked for—no padding of the rental period is permitted. This rule applies to any establishment covered by the Chapter governing short-term residential rentals in Las Vegas.

For Property Managers

Operators subject to Las Vegas Municipal Code §§ 6.09, 6.75 § 6.75.070 generally ensure that invoices and rental agreements reflect only the number of days an occupant actually occupied or specifically requested. Compliant operators avoid billing practices that round up stay durations or add unrequested days to a rental period. Reviewing billing systems and reservation software to confirm charges align with actual or requested occupancy is a common practice for operators seeking to stay within this rule.

For Tenants

Las Vegas Municipal Code §§ 6.09, 6.75 § 6.75.070 gives occupants of short-term residential rental units the right not to be charged for days beyond what they actually stayed or requested. If a bill appears to include extra, unrequested days, an occupant may document the discrepancy and consider raising it as a violation with the appropriate Las Vegas municipal authority or consulting a tenant-rights organization familiar with local short-term rental rules. General enforcement paths can include filing a complaint with the city or raising the violation as a defense in any collection proceeding related to the disputed charges.
