Appenzell Innerrhoden allows the occasional erection of individual caravans and tents outside approved campsites — with the consent of the landowner and for a maximum of one month a year.
Machine-translated, may be inaccurate — the original wording is authoritative.
Art. 4 der Campingverordnung vom 12. Juni 1973. Die Erlaubnis gilt dem gelegentlichen Aufstellen einzelner Fahrzeuge und Zelte, nicht der Gruppe und nicht dem Dauerstandplatz. Besondere Erlasse der Bezirksbehörden bleiben ausdrücklich vorbehalten — was der Bezirk regelt, geht vor. Zum Übernachten ohne Zelt sagt die Verordnung nichts: sie spricht vom Aufstellen von Wohnwagen und Zelten.

Article 4 of the Camping Ordinance of 12 June 1973. The permit applies to the occasional erection of individual vehicles and tents, not to the group and not to the permanent pitch. Special decrees of the district authorities are expressly reserved — what the district regulates takes precedence. The ordinance says nothing about spending the night without a tent: it speaks of setting up caravans and tents.
Machine-translated, may be inaccurate — the original wording is authoritative.

Not yet looked up
These municipalities of the canton do not have their own entry yet. They are listed here anyway, because the answer “nothing is regulated at cantonal level for Appenzell Innerrhoden, and nothing has been looked up for your municipality yet” is an answer — and because the map holds the contact of each municipality.
