Assumptions used
- Mutually exclusive tax class: Rhode Island’s March 2026 Rhode Island hotel-tax guide distinguishes whole-home and room-rental 5% classes; the calculator requires one finite property-class selection.
- STR registration: Rhode Island’s active registration rule requires each listed property to carry the required registration details and renew annually.
What may change the final amount
- Whole-home versus room-rental classification. The two 5% Rhode Island classes are mutually exclusive; selecting the wrong class changes the estimate and filing path.
- Platform listing registration. Registration number, expiration date, annual renewal and the $25 fee affect the operating path but are not tax inputs.
Estimated tax is $63.00. Estimated guest total is $513.00.
