We searched for Charlotte County short-term rental rules in November 2026 and found nothing online; we didn’t read the zoning ordinance itself. Confirm with the locality before you list.

What to do

  1. Taxes on each stay

    Stays under 90 days owe 6.3% sales tax, and stays under 30 days also owe the local transient occupancy tax. Airbnb collects both on its bookings. If guests pay you directly, file sales tax with Virginia Tax. The state chart lists no county or town lodging tax in Charlotte County.Source

  2. Ask about zoning

    Ask Charlotte County planning and zoning whether zoning allows a short-term rental at your address and whether you need a permit. Check your HOA rules too.
