| T3/V3 | 3 bedrooms |
| T4/V4 | 4 bedrooms |
| T5/V5 | 5 bedrooms |
| T6/V6 | 6 or more bedrooms |
This typology is not required for hotel-type establishments in the 551xx range (55101–55107).
Room mapping is required. If no room types are mapped, the configuration warning banner will include "Room mapping is not configured — at least one room type must be mapped" and reports will not be generated.
