Legal compliance in Austria

Two obligations, both fully automated.

Accommodations in Austria must register guests with the police and report overnight-stay statistics. Chekin files both automatically with the authorities, so neither lands on your desk.

Optional · Identity verification

Verify the guest is who they claim to be.

Identity verification adds a tamper-proof second layer: Chekin reads the document's MRZ and automatically cross-checks it against the OCR data — if they don't match, the check fails. It then confirms the guest with a biometric selfie and liveness check, across 150+ countries and 2,500+ document templates.

What Chekin automates

Everything you need to stay compliant in Austria.

From collecting the guest's data to filing both registration and statistics with the authorities — no manual steps in between.

Online check-in built for compliance

An adaptive form that captures document, full name, nationality, date of birth and length of stay — all validated before submission.

Automated police registration

Guest data is filed with the authority through Feratel, Capcorn or Medatec the moment a guest completes check-in. One integration covers every property.

Automated tourism statistics

Overnight-stay statistics are reported automatically with the regional systems Vienna (VIETour) and Graz, with no work from the host.

OCR document scanning

Chekin reads the passport or ID with OCR and auto-fills the registration, so the data that reaches the authorities is accurate from the start.

7-year secure storage

Registration records are kept encrypted for the seven years required by law, GDPR-compliant by default and ready for any inspection.

Digital archive for inspections

Every registration and statistical report is stored, time-stamped and exportable. When an inspection comes, it's all one click away.

How it works

From check-in to filing, with no manual steps.

The same flow runs for every guest, covering both police registration and tourism statistics automatically.

The guest checks in

The guest fills in the registration form with their info, verifies their identity, and signs before submitting.

2

OCR captures the data

Chekin reads the passport or ID with OCR and builds the registration in the exact format the authorities require.

3

We file it for you

You see the status, not the work

Avoid penalties

Compliance is not optional in Austria.

Both guest registration with the police and tourism statistics are mandatory for every accommodation. Failure to comply can lead to administrative fines — on top of GDPR penalties for mishandling guest data.
