Weymouth STR operators must collect and remit the Massachusetts state room occupancy excise (5.7%) plus any applicable local option tax under MGL c. 64G. State DOR registration and $1 million liability insurance are mandatory.
Under MGL c. 64G, all Massachusetts STR operators must register with the MA DOR and collect the 5.7% state room occupancy excise. Weymouth may levy a local option excise up to 6%. Operators must carry $1 million liability insurance per occurrence. Platforms like Airbnb typically remit state taxes automatically, but hosts remain responsible for proper registration and compliance. Contact Weymouth's Finance/Tax office for current local option rate information.
Failure to register with DOR or remit taxes subjects operators to state tax penalties and interest.
