Guide for Airbnb hosts

Airbnb host flags, strikes, and violations — and how to clear them

Flags and violations can sit on your host account without you knowing, quietly hurting how your listing shows up and putting your account at risk. We check your account, confirm what's there, and work to clear it — and you pay only after all flags and violations are removed.

Signs your account may be flagged

Sudden drop in bookings

Views or bookings fall off with no change in price, season, or reviews.

Warnings or policy messages

You've received notices about cancellations, guest complaints, or listing rules.

Listing paused or restricted

A listing was suspended, snoozed, or limited without a clear explanation.

Lost Superhost or badges

Status changes that don't match your ratings and response record.

Why it matters

Hosts often only find out about account issues after bookings slow down or a listing is restricted. Catching and clearing them early protects your ranking, your income, and your account.

Common questions

Can I see flags on my own Airbnb account?

Not always. Some issues aren't shown clearly to hosts, which is why we check the account and confirm what's there before quoting.

How do I request flag removal?

Submit your request and our team will assess your case and email a custom quote. Work begins only after you approve. Payment follows the terms of your approved quote.

Is submitting a request free?

Yes. There's no upfront charge and no card needed to request a check.
