Airbnb has conducted its first enforcement action in accordance with an agreement with Maui County in which more than 1,300 ineligible short-term rental listings were removed from its platform, according to a news release Thursday.
Under the agreement signed in July, Airbnb will create two new fields that allow hosts to enter their county-issued Tax Map Key number and state-issued Transient Accommodations Tax License number on their listing.
Hosts listing a bed and breakfast, short-term rental home or other transient vacation rental on Airbnb will be required to provide their TMK and TAT numbers in order to continue hosting on the platform.
Airbnb has similar to agreements signed with Kauai County, which was implemented in 2020, and the City and County of Honolulu is awaiting implementation pending county action to stand up a registration system for hosts, according to the news release.
