Taxes & Fees

Montgomery excludes Airbnb-type hosts from the flat $200 rooming and boarding house business license under Schedule AJ, so short-term rental operators must instead obtain a standard gross-receipts business license from the Finance Department's Revenue Division. Every host still owes the city's transient occupancy tax on rental income and faces a $500 daily fine for operating unlicensed.
