What is the difference between an Occupancy Tax and a Property Use Tax? And should guest be charged for both?

Hi @Jason2556 To my understanding, Occupancy Tax: This tax is often charged by local or state governments on the rental of rooms or accommodations for short-term stays. Property Use Tax: This is generally a broader tax that could be imposed on the usage of a property, but is more commonly referred to as a property tax. Also, Airbnb collects and remits taxes on behalf of hosts in many locations around the world. You can usually find this information in the help center. Hope this helps!
