Tax information
I would like to have a phone conversation with an Airbnb representative that lives in my city. Someone that understands. local laws like I do.
They can call me **. If I am unable to answer , then if they leave a contact number, I will call them back .
I only want to speak on the phone, not text or email, and I only want to speak to someone from Toronto, Canada .
Talking to other people that don’t understand the local laws
is a complete waste of my time
Thank you
Frank **

@Frank2129 I think we need to clear a few things up here:
1) Personal details will get removed by admins so no one is going to call you
2) I very much doubt if an Airbnb rep lives in your city but even if they do they won't call you
3) Your post comes across as very rude
Now we have cleared this up why not post a more friendly request for someone that hosts in Canada to answer whatever specific question you may have.

Airbnb don't have staff in every city that they operate in and in any case can't advise on local tax laws - this is something that you as the business owner would need to familiarise yourself about . @Frank2129
if Airbnb collect some local taxes you can normally find this on their website for example a quick search found this

Hi @Frank2129,
Welcome to the Community Center! I'm sorry to hear you've not managed to get answers to your questions before in regards to local tax. I believe @Helen427, @Helen3 and @Mike-And-Jane0 have all shared some useful insights and advice here. If you get a chance to take a look, let us know what you think and how you get on please, as it might help other Hosts in a similar situation in the future!
Have a lovely day 👋

Hi @Frank2129 😊,
I appreciate you posting on our Community Center and reaching out to other Hosts for help.
Please know that I’ll have to remove your personal details, as it is not allowed to share them on the Community Center.
Why do you need hosts to call you? What are your concerns?
Warm regards🌻,

Hi @Elisa
This is @Frank2129 third post in a week on this topic .
he wants to talk to an Airbnb member of staff from Toronto about his local tax laws.
i linked him to the Airbnb information on your website about STR related taxes in Cananda so he could find the information there
And let him know you don't have staff in every city and that in any case they can't advise about tax issues .
