VRBO Changing Tennessee Sales Tax Stance

Rental Property Investor · Tennessee Florida · Member since 2016 · 4k+ posts · 5k+ votes

In the state of Tennessee, VRBO will now be operating in the same manner as Airbnb's "DEFAULT" when it comes to sales tax.

You will still need to collect and remit the local lodging tax (3-4% depending on the jurisdiction)*

Please read below and change your listing accordingly!

@John Underwood Yes to me personally this will be a bit easier. One box to fill in on mylodgetax instead of two, and less confusing for noobs to figure out.

They said it was due to Tennessee changing laws. My guess is many owners weren’t remitting their taxes. At least this way the state and county get their taxes.
