Assumptions used

  • Modeled tax boundary: The estimate covers San Jose within the jurisdiction and the official tax boundary described by the linked official sources.
  • One aggregate mandatory-fee pool: Enter the mandatory lodging fees once in the common charge-breakdown input; the calculator does not infer separate fee categories that the cited authorities treat differently.

What may change the final amount

  • San José TOT changes to 12% on 2026-10-01. The current City rate is 10% through 2026-09-30. Measure A changes Chapter 4.74 from 4% to 6%, making the total 12% effective 2026-10-01. Because the calculator has no stay-date input, future stays must be checked against the official measure; the current estimate is bounded to the pre-change period.
  • Convention Center Facilities District and Hotel Business Improvement District items are separate from the 10%. Convention Center Facilities District and Hotel Business Improvement District items are separate from the 10% base and are not included.
  • 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.
