Tax Types

What Taxes Apply to Nevada Short-Term Rentals?

Nevada STR hosts are subject to several types of taxes. Understanding which ones apply — and who collects them — is the first step toward compliance.

Sales Tax

Nevada applies its state sales tax to short-term rental stays — currently at a base rate that contributes to combined lodging rates of 13.38%. Cities may add local sales tax on top.

Occupancy / Transient Lodging Tax

Nevada's lodging/occupancy tax is the primary STR-specific tax. Combined rates reach 13.38% in Las Vegas and 13.5% in Reno. This includes state, county, and city-level components.

Tourism / Convention Center Tax

Some Nevada cities levy additional tourism, convention center, or special district taxes that add 1–3% to your total rate. In Las Vegas, the combined rate of 13.38% already includes these surcharges.

Federal Income Tax

Nevada has no state income tax — a significant advantage for STR owners. Your net rental profit is only subject to federal income tax, reported on Schedule E (Form 1040). 2026 federal rates range from 10% to 37%.

Property Tax

Nevada's average effective property tax rate is 0.6%. Assessed annually on market value. STRs may face higher assessments in some jurisdictions.

Important

Does Airbnb Collect and Remit Taxes in Nevada?

Airbnb has agreements to collect and remit taxes in Nevada — but coverage is not always complete.

Airbnb collects Nevada's state-level lodging tax in most jurisdictions.
In Las Vegas and Reno: Airbnb may or may not collect all county/city taxes.
Rural areas: You're often fully responsible for all local tax collection.
Even where Airbnb collects, you may owe additional local levies or special district taxes.

Bottom line: Never assume Airbnb handles all your Nevada tax obligations. Verify with your local tax authority.

City or county business license
