Ontario HST

[Brent455]

Hi Everyone! 

I'm looking for some help understanding the Occupancy Tax to HST payout details.  We have a guest currently staying in our place so we haven't received the full payout as of yet.  But our payout break down shows occupancy tax collected by Airbnb but not paid through to us on our end.  I am registered with a HST# and have submitted that information to Airbnb.  

Should I expect to see the HST payout after the booking is completed? Or do I have to deduct even more from my payout line for my own tax collection?

Hello @Brent455, welcome and thanks for bringing this topic to the Airbnb Community Center.

Here’s an article that might be helpful: Tax collection and remittance by Airbnb in Canada. Please take a look and let us know if it helps answer some of your questions.

In the meantime, I’d like to ask @Gabriella676  @Kathleen441  @Rhonda440  @Kelmany0 and @Natasha632 if they’d be willing to share some insights based on their experience hosting in Ontario.

Thank you, everyone.

So I found the tab to add a specific tax to the listing. I should have updated my request.  

it was under Listing Editor > Edit Preference > Taxes > Add a Tax
