Short-term stays owe Arizona's 5.5% state transient lodging tax plus Coconino County and city rates. Airbnb and Vrbo collect and remit TPT; owners also record the property with the County Assessor.
Arizona taxes lodging under 30 days through the Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT). The state transient lodging rate is 5.5%, on top of which Coconino County and the city add their own rates; Flagstaff levies city hotel/bed taxes that push the combined lodging rate into the low teens. Airbnb and Vrbo automatically collect and remit TPT on their bookings, while direct bookings require registering with the Arizona Department of Revenue at AZTaxes.gov and filing returns. Separately, A.R.S. §33-1902 requires owners to record residential rental property, including short-term rentals, with the Coconino County Assessor.
Unremitted TPT accrues penalties and interest through the Department of Revenue; late filing adds a monthly penalty. Failing to record the property with the Coconino County Assessor can bring a $150-per-day civil penalty under A.R.S. §33-1902.
