Short-term rentals in Cheyenne must collect and remit Wyoming sales tax plus the local lodging tax, which combined approaches eight percent for stays under 30 days, paid through Wyoming Department of Revenue filings.
Cheyenne imposes a 4 percent local lodging tax that stacks on the Wyoming 4 percent state lodging tax for total transient occupancy charges around 8 percent. Hosts collecting rent under 30 days are responsible for registering with the Wyoming Department of Revenue, collecting tax from guests, and remitting on the standard return schedule. Some platforms collect on the host behalf, but the legal duty remains with the property owner. Failure to remit accrues interest and penalties. The tax funds Visit Cheyenne tourism marketing and Frontier Days infrastructure support.
Unregistered hosts, uncollected lodging tax, and unfiled returns face Wyoming Department of Revenue assessments, interest, late penalties, and potential personal liability for owed amounts.
