Furnished accommodation classification
The classification of meublés de tourisme is subject to strict criteria. It is established by an organization accredited by the Comité français d’accréditation (COFRAC) or the list of organizations referred to in 2° of article L. 324-1 of the French Tourism Code, for a period of five years, at the end of which the lessor must submit a new classification application if he wishes his accommodation to continue to benefit from classification.
