Middlesex County sets no annual night cap on short-term rentals. New Jersey's tax law instead uses a 90-day threshold: leases of 90 consecutive days or more are not taxable transient accommodations.
Middlesex County imposes no limit on the number of nights per year a property may be rented short-term. Any cap on rental nights or bookings comes from a municipal STR ordinance, and towns vary in whether they set one. New Jersey's relevant statewide threshold is a tax dividing line rather than a night cap: a rental becomes taxable as a transient accommodation only when the stay is under 90 consecutive days. Leases with a term of at least 90 consecutive days are excluded from the definition and are not subject to Sales Tax or the State Occupancy Fee. Hosts should check their town for any local booking-night limits.
Exceeding a municipal night cap, where one exists, can result in local fines and suspension of a short-term rental permit.
