Live Oak does not operate an STR registration portal at this time; state hotel tax registration with the Texas Comptroller remains the primary mandatory filing.
There is no dedicated short-term rental registration system published in the Live Oak Code of Ordinances on Municode. Hosts therefore do not receive a local STR permit number, and enforcement relies on zoning, nuisance, and building codes. However, every STR host in Texas must register with the Texas Comptroller for state hotel occupancy tax within 30 days of beginning operations. Property owners should also check their HOA covenants, since many Bexar County subdivisions prohibit rentals under a certain term. If Live Oak adopts registration in the future, expect fees similar to neighboring cities in the $100 to $500 range with annual renewal.
