Short-term rentals in Shawnee are subject to Kansas state and local sales tax plus a transient guest tax on lodging of 28 days or fewer (KSA 12-1692 et seq.). Johnson County and the city levy transient guest taxes on top of sales tax.
Short-term rental income in Shawnee carries two tax layers. Stays of 28 days or fewer are subject to Kansas transient guest tax under KSA 12-1692 and related statutes — levied by both Johnson County and the city — on top of state and local sales tax. Platforms sometimes collect part of this automatically, but responsibility for registering and remitting rests with the operator, so confirm exactly what your platform files. Longer stays fall outside the transient guest tax. Operators should register with the state and keep clean records of nightly receipts.
