Neither Sarpy County nor its cities mandate short-term-rental liability insurance. Nebraska limits STR regulation to enumerated health-and-safety matters, and insurance is not among them, but hosts still need coverage that fits rental use.
LB 57 (Neb. Rev. Stat. §18-1758) restricts Sarpy County cities to regulating short-term rentals for specific health-and-safety purposes, and carrying insurance is not on that list, so there is no local minimum-coverage requirement. Practically, though, standard homeowner policies often exclude commercial rental activity, and platform-provided coverage like Airbnb's AirCover may leave gaps. Hosts commonly add a short-term-rental rider or a commercial policy. Anyone booking directly should confirm coverage with their insurer before hosting.
There is no local insurance penalty. The real risk is personal liability for guest injuries or property damage that an excluding homeowner policy will not cover.
