GET/TAT on cancelled reservations?

[Kirby39]

I've been told by a RE pro that GET & TAT are not required by the State of HI (Kauai) on a "cancellation fee" if the guests did not occupy the property.  Any retained earnings from the cancellation will be reported as gross income for federal tax, but is it required for GET/TAT?  No use tax or cleaning fee were passed through.  100% room fee.  Any thoughts?

Hi @Kirby39 ! This is a very new information for the Hosts in the Community Center as well. Did you manage to find any further insights into this?

Have you also reached out to Airbnb Customer Support team to know more about it?
