Assumptions used
- Common short-stay boundary: The displayed estimate is limited to 1–29 nights and does not allocate longer-stay exemptions or first-N-night rules.
- Deterministic state or common base: The estimate uses the room-charge input only; added-charge classification remains a visible limitation or factor.
What may change the final amount
- St. Louis room tax and STR business-license fee remain separate local layers. The Missouri state sales-tax base is displayed. The official city room-tax page states 7.25% on taxable room receipts, while Ordinance 72095 adds a 3% STR business-license fee on rent paid quarterly. The calculator does not present the regulatory business-license fee as an occupancy-tax line and leaves city/district conditions visible.
Estimated tax is $19.01. Estimated guest total is $469.01.
