Check my countyReserve a founding place| Lodging tax | 2.5% City of Pigeon Forge lodging tax, making 12.25% total on the guest’s bill. The city also charges a 1% gross receipts tax on your total gross sales. That one comes from the business owner and is not added to the guest’s bill. |
|---|---|
| Does Airbnb or Vrbo collect it? | Airbnb says it collects all locally imposed occupancy taxes in Tennessee, and Vrbo lists Tennessee local lodging tax. The 1% gross receipts tax is a tax on your business, not a guest tax, so it isn’t part of what the platforms collect. Confirm with the city. |
| What you still do | File the city gross receipts tax, and file lodging and sales tax on direct bookings. |
| Registration / permit | City business license and Tennessee sales tax number: confirm the steps with the city. |
