Taxes on Yall Come Back are always host-level. One set of rules applies to every listing under your brand. Yall Come Back can show tax on guest quotes. You remain responsible for collecting, filing, and remitting to the correct authorities.
Important things to know
- Yall Come Back and this software do not collect, withhold, remit, or file taxes for you. We are not a tax advisor, CPA, or government agency.
- You alone decide which taxes apply (for example hotel occupancy or sales tax). You set accurate rates. You collect from guests. You file on time. You keep records for audits.
- Yall Come Back, its operators, and contributors are not liable for wrong rates, missed filings, penalties, interest, or tax claims from your use of these tools. If you are not sure, talk to a qualified tax professional or your local tax authority.
- Tax is never set on a single listing page. It always applies to the whole host brand.
How host-level tax works
- One host (for example your resort brand) can define one or more tax lines: a guest-facing name and a percent rate.
- Each line can apply to lodging (nightly rate), cleaning fee, and pet fee, depending on how you set it up when tools are available.
- Every published stay under that host uses the same tax lines on booking quotes. Guests see a consistent breakdown.
- When a booking is created, tax amounts can be snapshotted on the booking. Past stays keep the rates that applied at that time.
What guests see
- In the booking widget, tax lines show in the price breakdown when the host has active rates and liability rules are met.
- Deposit percent is calculated from the stay total that includes applicable taxes on the quote (see Payments and deposits).
- Cancellation full-refund language generally includes taxes that were part of the stay price on Yall Come Back. See Cancellation policies.
Where to review this in your account
