Sadly, this offence seems easiest to pull off in airbnbs that are genuine home-sharing where you are renting from an actual resident that is away for short periods of time (or just relocates with family during bookings), rather than pure “buy-to-airbnb” properties with better security and that kind of documentation wouldn’t be present.

The former group effectively improves local housing affordability by decreasing the latter or pushing developers towards residential construction instead of hotel construction.
