[Mari97]

Hello, i have a unit on Miami Beach and I am new with this. I will really appreciate all your recomendations on how to promote my apartment, also if any of you know how exactly i have to pay for resort taxes and is this tax for the total payout or the net payment the airbnb do to me???

Thank you in advance for your support.

Hello @Mari97 ,

As you can see on your own listing there are some taxes charged by Airbnb from the guest. It says:

General Sales and Use Tax (Florida)

General Sales and Use Tax (Miami-dade)

Convention Development Tax (Miami-dade)

Nothing mentioned about Resort taxes, so you have to find out yourself if they excists and charge the guest seperately, if neccessary

Best regards, Emiel

Oh boy

You are right about so much to learn, @Mari97!  You might be better served regarding your learning curve if you also looked up articles in the Help Center about taxes.  Several articles address what taxes are specifically taken in your area and how that works.   As to any taxes that are not collected and remitted by Air BNB, it would be best for you to look up this information in your area such as a City website.   Good luck with the learning thing 😛
