Municipal Hotel Occupancy Tax Submission Form

In 2017, the 85th Legislature passed Senate Bill 1221 with the intent of increasing local government transparency while also allowing the public to better understand the state’s patchwork of municipal hotel occupancy taxes (HOT). The bill amends the Tax Code by adding Section 351.009, requiring municipalities that impose a HOT under Chapter 351 to provide their required tax information to the Comptroller. The information entered below should reflect the municipality’s most recently completed fiscal year. All fields are required for completion.
