Bill > S2813

This bill amends existing Rhode Island law to exempt houses, condominiums, or other residential dwelling units, regardless of their size, from the state sales or hotel tax when they are used or advertised for rent for occupancy. The hotel tax, which is currently a 5% tax on the total cost of occupying a space in a hotel, is administered by the division of taxation. This change aims to provide tax relief for short-term residential rentals.
