Hotel Occupancy Tax Information

On the 20th day of the month following the month of collection, every person required to collect the tax must file a report with the City's Accounting Office. Payment of taxes collected for the reporting period are due at the same time the report is filed. In addition, a copy of the Texas Hotel Occupancy Tax report should be furnished to the City.
