For this purpose, the license for guesthouse (“estabelecimento de hospedagem” - EH) is the relevant one. This license is capped to 9 rooms or 30 guests. EH are subject to a series of simple exploration conditions, (including fire risk if < 11 guests). Application is made online subject to a 60 day period (90 days in case of contention area during which time the townhall will make a vistoria. EH can incorporate other commercial activities like restauration and/or bar. The categories EH and Rooms can use the commercial name of Bed&Breakfast or guesthouse. 
Some geographical areas are limited in issuing new AL licences
