Utah Transient Room Taxes

What is Transient Room Tax?

Transient room tax (TRT) can be imposed by a county, city or town on the rental of temporary lodging at hotels, motels, inns, trailer courts, campgrounds, tourist homes, and similar accommodations for stays of less than 30 consecutive days. Where TRT is imposed, it is charged in addition to sales tax and other applicable taxes.

The TRT does not apply to charges for admission to an exercise facility, dry cleaning services, safety deposit box rentals, telephone charges, vending machines sales, video/movie charges, or rooms not used for lodging such as meeting and convention rooms.

See online Sales & Use Tax Workshop for more information on all TRT and lodging accommodations.

Reporting and Paying Transient Room Tax

TRT is generally reported and paid to the Utah State Tax Commission on form TC-62T, Transient Room Tax Return. However, counties, cities and towns can collect the TRT locally. (See Utah Code Section 59-12-301.)

If TRT is collected locally by a county, city or town, businesses subject to the TRT in those locations make payments directly to the county, city or town. In some locations, one part of the TRT is collected by the Tax Commission while another is collected locally. Contact your county, city or town government for specific filing requirements.

Tax Rates

Tax rates vary from one location to another depending on which taxes are imposed. Current and previous tax rates are available on the Tax Commission website at tax.utah.gov/sales/rates.html.

Changes to the tax rate and jurisdiction boundaries may only occur on a quarterly basis. The Tax Commission will publish updated rates on its website 60 days in advance of the effective date.
