Bexar County TX Hotel Occupancy Tax?

[Travis C.]

We just started our first STR (Airbnb) in Bexar County, TX and I'm tryingto figure out if anyone can get me spun in the right direction with the local tax authority.

The City of San Antonio is in Bexar County. My STR is not in city limits but is in the County. I've read where there is a 1.75% HOT tax levied by the County but County properties are not subjected to City of San Antonio HOT taxes. I verified with the Office of Economic Development that city HOT taxes don't apply to me. However, I asked who or what department I could connect with in the County to set up a tax account or at least ascertain how to pay my County HOT taxes and no one can tell me! There's no apparent website managed by the County nor did the City office have a clue to whom I could be referred to.

I simply want to pay my monthly HOT taxes for what I will owe but I'm spinning my wheels as is. Anyone local have any ideas??
