If my name property is in my personal name and I don't have an EIN number how do I add the lodging tax to my listing? I have my business license number. Airbnb is asking for both a Business tax ID and Accommodations tax registration number.

@Ben Morrow . Do yourself a favor and contact my lodge tax dot com (this is only for areas in which Airbnb doesn’t pay the taxes for you)

@Ben Morrow You can get an EIN as a sole proprietor. That way you don't have to use your SSN.

Seems you should get an ein. Its free where I live, and it isn't hard to apply.
