Do I need to collect and remit taxes for short term rentals in Nashville?
Before you begin collecting any short-term rental taxes from your guests in Nashville, it's crucial to understand whether any taxes have already been collected on your behalf. Some short-term rental platforms must register and collect Nashville short-term rental taxes for hosts when a listing is booked. Suppose taxes aren’t being collected for you, such as when guests book directly with you rather than through a platform, you’re responsible for collecting and remitting these taxes. The sales tax rate charged is based on the location where the lodging is provided. Additional taxes such as a basic room tax, an additional room tax, and a municipal room tax may also apply, depending on the location of your short-term rental property in Nashville. Please note that the information provided here is a general guideline and may not reflect the most current regulations. Always check with local authorities for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
