Assumptions used
- Common short-stay boundary: The displayed estimate is limited to 1–89 nights and does not allocate longer-stay exemptions or first-N-night rules.
- Deterministic state or common base: The room charge plus one mandatory-fee input is used only where the cited official lodging guidance establishes that common taxable base.
What may change the final amount
- Local or property-specific tax layers are outside the base estimate. Dare County explicitly states a 6% occupancy tax on gross accommodation receipts. That known county layer is excluded from the simplified sales/use base and may increase the result; any additional town or property-specific layer must be verified separately with the responsible official before filing.
Estimated tax is $30.38. Estimated guest total is $480.38.
