Local Laws and Taxes

Your Local Laws and Taxes


Take a moment to review your local laws. We want to make sure you've got everything you need to get off to a great start. Please educate yourself about the laws in your jurisdiction before listing your space. Most cities have rules covering home-sharing, and the specific codes and ordinances can appear in many places (such as zoning, building, licensing or tax codes).

To get you started, we offer some helpful resources under "Your Local City Laws." By accepting our Terms of Service and listing your space, you certify that you will follow applicable laws and regulations. The details provided here are only meant to be informational and Hosts should always work with a tax professional prior to hosting.

Local Registration

In most places, you must register, get a permit, or obtain a license before you list your property or accept guests. You may also be responsible for collecting and remitting certain taxes. In some places, short-term rentals could be prohibited all together. Since you are responsible for your own decision to list or book, you should get comfortable with the applicable rules before listing on Hustle Pads™.

Local Taxes

It is your sole responsibility to be aware of your local laws with regards to the applicable taxes and fees. As a host, you are responsible for determining and fulfilling your obligations under applicable laws to report, collect, remit, or include in your price any applicable VAT or other indirect taxes, occupancy taxes, tourist, income, or other taxes ("Taxes").

Tax Information

In certain jurisdictions, Tax regulations may require that we collect and/or report Tax information about you, or withhold Taxes from payouts to you, or both. If you fail to provide us with documentation that we determine to be sufficient to support any such obligation to withhold Taxes from payouts to you, we may withhold payouts up to the amount as required by law, until sufficient documentation is provided. You agree that Hustle Pads may issue on your behalf invoices or similar documentation for VAT, GST, consumption or other Taxes for your Host Services to facilitate accurate tax reporting by you, our Guests, and/or their organizations.
