Checked against official sources November 8, 2026What to do
Then your city
Texas counties can’t zone, so rental rules come from the city your home is in. Outside city limits there’s usually no permit, but deed restrictions and HOA rules may limit rentals. Pick your city.Source
Hotel taxes on each stay
Stays of 29 nights or less owe the 6% state hotel tax, which Airbnb collects on its bookings. If guests pay you directly, file it with the Texas Comptroller. Coryell County doesn’t report a county hotel tax to the Comptroller. Cities that levy a hotel tax collect it themselves; Airbnb doesn’t collect local tax anywhere in Coryell County.Source
