Las Vegas Title 6.85 puts compliance duties on the licensed host, not on Airbnb or Vrbo. Platforms collect and remit transient lodging tax, but enforcement, complaint response, and license discipline target the property owner directly.
Unlike some California cities that fine listing platforms for unlicensed listings, Las Vegas places primary regulatory liability on the individual licensee. The host must hold a current Title 6.85 STR license, post the license number in every advertisement, comply with occupancy and parking caps, and respond to complaints within 60 minutes through a designated local agent. Platforms have an obligation to collect Clark County's combined transient lodging tax and remit it to the state, and many display license numbers, but the city does not directly fine Airbnb or Vrbo for hosting unlicensed listings. Enforcement runs through the host.
Advertising without a visible Las Vegas STR license number is a Title 6.85 violation against the host, not the platform; first offense fines run roughly $1,000 per advertisement per day until corrected.
