The bill requires advertising platforms to collect and remit taxes for vacation rental transactions and preempts local regulations on vacation rentals.

In order to facilitate the remittance of such taxes, the department and counties that have elected to self-administer the taxes imposed under chapter 125 must allow advertising platforms to register, collect, and remit such taxes.

    This change mandates that advertising platforms collect and remit taxes on vacation rentals, ensuring compliance with tax regulations.

  • s. 509.013

    This defines the term 'advertising platform' and clarifies the responsibilities associated with its operation.

  • s. 509.032

    (To be determined based on language provided in the specific section) → (To be determined based on language provided in the specific section)

    This change conforms cross-references within the statutes to align with other amendments introduced in the bill.

  • s. 509.241

    licenses issued by the Division of Hotels and Restaurants of the Department of Business Regulation. → licenses issued by the Division of Hotels and Restaurants of the Department of Business and Professional Regulation to be displayed conspicuously to the public inside the licensed establishment; requiring the owner or operator of certain vacation rentals to display the vacation rental license number and specified tax account numbers;

    This requires vacation rental licenses to be displayed publicly, enhancing transparency for guests.

    This updates the registration requirements for sexual predators, enhancing community safety measures.

  • s. 509.013

    "Director" means the Director of the Division of Hotels and Restaurants of the Department of Business Regulation. → "Director" means the Director of the Division of Hotels and Restaurants of the Department of Business and Professional Regulation.

    This change updates the title of the regulatory body, ensuring proper identification in the statutes.

  • s. 509.013
