Delaware tax, line by line
Delaware charges no general sales tax — here's what that really means
Delaware has NO state sales tax. Hosts pay a Gross Receipts Tax (Del. Code tit. 30, ch. 21) on their rental revenue; this is embedded in the host's pricing and not separately charged to renters.
Statute-anchored: Del. Code tit. 30 ch. 21 (Gross Receipts Tax — seller-paid, not consumer line-item) · no general sales tax authority
Rates last reconciled against the cited statute on 2026-05-25. Rates current as of 2026-05-25. Verify with your state Department of Revenue before final launch. No general state sales tax does not mean zero cost — see line items above. Not legal or tax advice.
