Englewood imposes a 3.8% city sales tax and 2% lodger's tax on STR transactions. Platforms like Airbnb and VRBO collect and remit these automatically. A $25 biennial Sales and Use Tax License plus STR License fee are required.
The sale of lodging services in Englewood is subject to a 3.8% city sales tax and a 2% city lodger's tax. If you operate exclusively on Airbnb, Homeaway/VRBO, or Evolve, those platforms collect and remit the city sales and lodger's tax automatically — you do not need to collect from guests separately. However, if you use other platforms or book directly, you must collect and remit these taxes yourself. Colorado's 3.9% state sales tax on accommodations also applies. A $25 non-refundable biennial Sales and Use Tax License is required in addition to the STR License. Tax compliance is a condition of maintaining an active license.
Failure to collect/remit taxes: tax code violation. Late payment incurs interest and penalties.
