      Classification in brief

      • Classification is official recognition of the quality of your accommodation.
      • It guarantees the conformity and quality of your accommodation with national and international standards.
      • As your offer is better identified, classification enables it to be better promoted by tourism organizations.
      • You will be issued with a statutory sign (approved by the Ministry of Tourism) attesting to the classification of your accommodation.
      • The classification is valid for 5 years.
      • It gives you the opportunity to be approved as a “Chèque Vacances” provider (information available fromANCV).
      • It also entitles you to an advantageous tax deduction (depending on your situation, check with your tax office).
