Short-term rental owners in unincorporated Yavapai County must complete two state-mandated registrations before listing. First, the property must be registered with the Yavapai County Assessor as residential rental property under Arizona Revised Statutes Section 33-1902. The registration must include the owner's name, address, telephone number; the parcel number and street address; year of construction; and, for entities, an officer/partner/trustee contact. Owners residing outside Arizona must designate an in-state statutory agent for service of process. Updates must be filed within 10 days of any change. Civil penalties for failing to register newly acquired property start at $1,000 plus $100 per month under A.R.S. Sec. 33-1902, and cities/towns may impose $150 per day for ongoing violations. Second, the operator must obtain an Arizona Department of Revenue Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) license and display the TPT or local permit number on every advertisement, as required by A.R.S. Sec. 9-500.39(B)(7).
