Does E. turistas require the guest's ID document number?
The fields listed in the NTIS completion rules do not include the document number – they ask for the state that issued the document. On arrival you must check that the document matches the submitted details, but you do not need to store its number or a copy.
The question comes up often because the old paper registration cards, and many other countries, did collect the document number. The current E. turistas fields are different: name, surname, date of birth, issuing state, place of residence, dates, tour organiser and purpose of travel.
Why it matters: GDPR requires you to collect only the data needed for the purpose. Collecting the document number or a photo "just in case" adds responsibility for storing it with no benefit. If a passport number leaks together with a name and date of birth, the harm to the guest is far greater than a leaked name alone.
Some properties collect the document number for other reasons, such as internal rules or a deposit. That is your decision, but it is no longer an NTIS requirement and has to be justified in your privacy policy. If in doubt, check the latest NTIS completion rules.
