Short-term stays are subject to New Jersey's 6.625% sales tax plus a 5% state occupancy fee under the 2018 transient-accommodations law. Galloway also charges rental registration and certificate-of-occupancy inspection fees locally.
New Jersey taxes transient accommodations (stays under 90 days) at the 6.625% state sales tax plus a 5% state occupancy fee. These apply when a rental is booked through a marketplace like Airbnb or VRBO, or is professionally managed. Rentals obtained directly from an owner who offers fewer than three units, without a marketplace, are exempt. Locally, Galloway does not levy a separate STR tax, but Chapter 276 registration carries a certificate-of-occupancy fee (per § 153-11.2) plus a $20-per-unit lead-evaluation fee and a $30 lead-inspection fee.
Failing to collect and remit NJ transient-accommodations taxes exposes the host to state assessment and penalties; local registration-fee nonpayment blocks issuance of the rental certificate of occupancy.
