Full Breakdown
The City of Edmond's Lodging Tax Ordinance (Chapter 3.12) imposes a 6% excise tax on gross rent from every hotel, motel, or lodging-house room rented in the city, except stays renting for under $3 a night. Operators must separately show the tax on every bill and are personally liable for collecting it from the guest. Returns and remittances go to the Oklahoma Tax Commission on the same schedule as state sales tax filings, under the city's collection agreement, rather than to Edmond's own City Clerk.
Violations & Fines
Failure to separately list the tax on guest bills, failure to file returns, or failure to remit collected tax to the Oklahoma Tax Commission on time triggers a 10% penalty and possible assessment by the Tax Commission.
