Assumptions used

  • Transient lodging boundary: The baseline is for transient lodging; a qualifying stay of 30 days or more is not modeled.

What may change the final amount

  • Salt Lake City address-specific local stack. Utah directs taxpayers to use an address/TAP lookup and notes additional local and special-district taxes. The calculator does not infer those layers from the city name.
  • Mandatory lodging fees. Utah guidance treats certain cleaning, resort, pet, and mandatory tip charges as taxable for relevant lodging taxes; this base uses room charge only.
  • Source-backed scope note. The modeled value is the official current Salt Lake City transient-room total for the city jurisdiction row. Exact address, city-boundary, exemption, and fee-base differences can still change the filing result.
  • Local permission evidence is not a tax input. The official local program, zoning, licensing, inspection, permit, and enforcement sources are disclosed for the linked STR page; they do not create an additional calculator rate unless an official source establishes an exact tax rule.
