This special notice explains how an online broker and an operator/accommodation host may enter a special arrangement to have the operator/accommodation host fulfill any or all of the obligations otherwise imposed on the online broker. For example, an online broker and an operator/accommodation host may enter an agreement (effective July 1, 2023 or later) whereby the operator/accommodation host agrees to collect tourism levy directly from purchasers, and then report and remit that tourism levy to TRA, rather than having the online broker do so.
