Taxes

Air BNB is collecting 13.5 % taxes on my listing located in Palm Beach County, Florida.  The occupancy taxes of 6% dueto the county have to be paid and filed by myself. Air BNB "DOES NOT" have an agreement with Palm Beach county to pay and remit taxes on the owners behalf. Since Air Bnb is collecting these taxes shouldn't they be giving me the 6% to pay the Occupancy taxes since they already collected that tax from the guest? Air BnB has NOT given me any portion of the collected taxes. I have to pay them out of my own pocket. Can someone please help me and clarify this. Air BNB has been NO help in getting this resolved.

I recieved a Tourist Development Tax notice for my "short term" rental. I guess they were looking through airbnb listings. They want 5% and want me to register. I am in St. Lucie County. I have the same concerns as Jennifer 99. 

Do I have to comply and what happens if I don't?
