The Taxes page in your Vrbo Owner Dashboard shows how lodging taxes are handled for your Vrbo property and what responsibilities apply to you as a host.

Reviewing this information helps ensure you understand how taxes are applied to bookings and what you’re required to remit to local tax authorities.

Your taxes

Note: This section appears only in select jurisdictions.

This section shows taxes for which you're liable. You can choose to have those taxes collected from travelers and sent to you to remit to your jurisdiction.

We'll monitor the applicable tax rates for you so you can remit the proper amount of tax to your jurisdiction.

 

Choose how you manage your taxes

For properties in eligible locations, Vrbo offers multiple ways to help you collect and manage your lodging taxes.

 

Tax responsibilities and requirements

By continuing to accept bookings, you agree that you’re registered as a taxpayer and will remit any tax sent to you to the appropriate taxing authorities. Upon inquiry or audit by any taxing jurisdiction, we may require you to provide your tax registration number and documentation that you remitted all taxes to the appropriate jurisdiction.

You can’t opt out of our collection and remittance of lodging tax in jurisdictions where we are required by law to collect and remit or where we have an agreement with the tax authority.
