Nightly / Short Term Rental Licensing Process

Anyone with the intent to offer lodging for a fee for periods less than 30 days must obtain:

1. A Nightly Rental License from Park City (if allowed by zoning); and
2. A State Sales Tax ID number from the Utah State Tax Commission: www.tax.utah.gov or call (801) 297-2200.

Additionally, you must take the following steps to comply with section 4-2-1 & 4-5-3 of Park City’s Municipal Code:

Step 1: Submit the Nightly Rental application to business@parkcity.org. Once the application is processed, you will receive an activity number via email. You will use this activity number to schedule your inspection with the Building Department by calling 435-615-5105.

Step 2: Submit a copy of your passed Nightly Rental Inspection Report by email to business@parkcity.org, by mail  or in person or mail to the Park City Finance Department located at 445 Marsac Avenue, Park City, UT 84060. 

Step 3: Once you have submitted the inspection report, you will receive payment instructions via email. Payments can be made by phone with a credit card or by check.

Nightly Rental applications generally take 5-10 days to approve and are mailed out.

If conducting business under an assumed name (D.B.A. "doing business as"), register the business name with the Utah Department of Commerce.
