Tax Registration and renting out in Hawaii

[sprentals100]

Hi folks, i am new to this. I finally started to make plans to list my rental on booking.com. I have some booked weeks at a Wyndham resort in Kauai. Near the end of the listing process on booking.com it asks for a “Hawaii Registration Identification Number”. I have no idea what that is.

I am not a American citizen or resident. I am Canadian citizen and simply own this time share in Kauai and would like rent out the week?

Does anyone know about this? Do i need to get a number? Does Airbnb also ask for the number? Does the resort have a number that i can piggyback off of? Can i pay them the tax and then use their number?

Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated. I would like to comply with whatever laws there are around this, but at the same time, hoping to not complicate things needlessly. I am not doing this a main source of income, simply just want to rent out my one measly little week.

Thank you kindly,

SP

I have never used bookings.com, so I am not 100% sure. However, some states impose a legal requirement to sale travel in those states, and yes they include lodging in travel. Example would FL, and HI perhaps since you are renting travel bookings is asking for this number.

Here is some info.
