Including a tax percentage on your listings will add a percentage to the total cost of the booking, and guests will need to pay for this percentage. As a Steward, you are responsible for collecting these taxes and paying proper tax authorities. Here’s how you can add a tax percentage to your listings.
Tax percentages by state, at-a-glance
We’ve partnered with Avalara to provide you with an overview of lodging tax percentages by state.
Since tax regulations can vary by location, business type, or the amount of money you earn, we encourage you to do your research to see if any additional taxes apply to you. Ensure that you’re properly following all local laws and that you understand the rules as they apply to the experiences you offer.
If you have any questions, please connect with your Steward Advocate.
