STRs in Hoboken are subject to NJ state sales tax (6.625%), state occupancy fee (5%), and Hoboken's 3% Municipal Occupancy Tax — a combined rate up to 14.625%. Major platforms collect and remit these taxes automatically. Annual property registration fees also apply.
Hoboken imposes a 3% Municipal Occupancy Tax on all short-term rentals (stays under 30 days), in addition to NJ's state hotel/motel taxes. The combined tax burden on guests can reach 14.625%: state sales tax 6.625% + state occupancy fee 5% + Hoboken municipal occupancy tax 3%. Major STR platforms (Airbnb, VRBO) collect and remit these taxes automatically. Annual residential property registration is required (fee applies). Hosts should also report income on state and federal tax returns. The Hoboken Finance Department handles occupancy tax questions at 94 Washington St.
Failure to collect/remit occupancy taxes: state and local tax penalties. Unreported STR income: IRS and NJ tax enforcement.
