Good morning I really need help because I do not know if I have to collect the taxes to the host and to who I pay

I am not in your area but some areas require hosts to collect taxes on guests or to register them so that taxes can be collected for hospitality.  This is on top of income tax which may be owed.  It's a very hyper-local issue and I hope you have local hosts who can help you on this forum!

I'm in London - I don't have hospitality taxes but I do have to pay income tax once it hits the taxpaying threshold.

Best wishes, Tracy
