Ottawa<\/a> has launched a new digital registration program for short-term rentals in partnership with Deckard Technologies, looking to improve compliance and oversight as vacation rental listings continue to grow.
Effective immediately, property owners offering short-term rentals through platforms such as Airbnb and Vrbo will now be required to register their properties using the new online system.
The program is designed to ensure rentals comply with city regulations and contribute appropriately through the lodging tax, commonly known as the \u201cpillow tax.\u201d
\u201cOur community is experiencing growth in the short-term rental market, and we want to make sure it\u2019s done responsibly and equitably,\u201d Mayor Robb Hasty said. \u201cPartnering with Deckard Technologies allows us to streamline the registration process, improve compliance, and make sure we\u2019re capturing the revenue needed to support city services.\u201d
Deckard Technologies helps cities across the country track and manage short-term rentals.
The platform enables hosts to register their properties, submit documentation and pay applicable taxes online.
The system also helps the city identify unregistered rentals and promotes fairness among operators.
Rental hosts are encouraged to register promptly to avoid penalties.
Additional information, including a registration link and frequently asked questions, is available at the city\u2019s website<\/a>.
