Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@paulabushardt The instructions mentioned by Tax Expert @KathrynG3 about entering occupancy tax as "other expenses" applies to a partial rental—when you are either renting part of your home, e.g. a bedroom or renting your whole home for a period of time, e.g. six weeks. 

 

If the property was not used for personal purposes, the occupancy tax would be entered under taxes as @MichaelMc mentioned.

 

According to Airbnb you can still deduct the occupancy tax because the tax is part of the service fees deducted from your payment.
