Stay restrictions
Minimum and maximum nights on arrival, arrival and departure not possible, minimum and maximum nights remaining, and Booking.com's own advance-notice booking window.
From the calendar, select one or more nights then open Stay restrictions: a panel sets up to six rules on the selection, all stackable.
The six fields
| Field | What it does | | --- | --- | | Minimum stay (nights, arrival on this day) | Minimum number of nights for a stay arriving on that day. | | Maximum stay (nights, arrival on this day) | Maximum number of nights for the same arrival. | | Arrival not possible | Forbids that day as a check-in date. | | Departure not possible | Forbids that day as a check-out date. | | Minimum nights remaining from this night | Under Advanced options: any stay covering this night must run at least this many nights from it. | | Maximum nights remaining from this night | Same logic, as a ceiling. |
A number field left empty is not changed. Arrival and departure are set from a three-option list: Don't change, Yes, No. Clear restrictions resets all six fields on the selection, after confirmation.

Several listings at once
The Timeline calendar lets you tick several listings before opening the panel: Apply restrictions then sends one update per listing and summarises successes and failures, like the calendar's other bulk actions.
What an already-restricted night shows
On the calendar, a night carrying a restriction shows a discreet marker — for example Min. stay night(s), Arrival not possible or Departure not possible — and a night closed by a sales stop shows Sales stopped (see Stop sales).
Advance-notice booking on Booking.com
On the page of a listing distributed on Booking.com, the Platform-specific settings card adds two fields that only this channel uses today:
- Minimum notice before arrival (hours) — from 0 to 8,640 hours; 0 means no minimum notice.
- Earliest booking (days before arrival) — from 1 to 360 days; 360 means no limit shorter than our partner's ceiling.
The card only appears when the listing is actually distributed on Booking.com; on any other listing, it stays absent.
What comes next
- Stop sales — close a whole period instead of setting restrictions.
- Modulate prices per platform — the other platform-specific setting.
- Take your first reservation and run your calendar — the calendar where these restrictions are set.
- Listings — back to the rest of the section.
