Guided pilot

Your first SIBA report with the founder alongside you

For Alojamento Local hosts with one to three units and foreign guests arriving in the next two weeks. We go through the whole process with you once, on a real stay, and learn from whatever does not go well.

How to take part

What we offer

  • The founder sets up your first property in ALocal with you: registration number, municipality and the establishment details SIBA asks for.
  • The founder follows your first real stay with foreign guests, from the first step to the last.
  • Your questions are answered by email during the pilot.

The path for that first stay

  1. You send the guest the link to fill in their identification details.
  2. ALocal generates the DAT file from those details.
  3. You submit the file on the SIBA portal, with your own credentials.
  4. You upload to ALocal the receipt the portal returns.

What we ask

  • One real stay with foreign guests during the pilot.
  • Your honest feedback: what was clear, what was confusing and what was missing.
  • Between 20 and 45 minutes of your time.

How long it lasts

It starts when the property is set up and ends when the receipt for the first guided stay is recorded in ALocal. That is why we ask for an arrival booked within the next two weeks.

If another stay with foreign guests follows, we ask you to handle it on your own and tell us how it went.

After the pilot

If you want to continue, the price is the published Pro plan: 10€/month including VAT. Generating the DAT file is part of the Pro plan.

The terms during the pilot are agreed by email before it starts. This page does not ask for or take payments.

Limits, stated plainly

  • ALocal does not submit anything to SIBA. The host submits the file on the official portal.
  • The host remains responsible for reporting guests and for the legal deadlines. The pilot is not legal advice.
  • Guest documents are not stored in the repository or in the pilot notes, and they are not shared.

Who provides the service

The provider’s full legal identity (name, tax number and address) is still to be published on the legal pages. Until then, those pages refer to the service as the Gestão de Alojamento Local platform.
