For your convenience, the City of Sandusky has partnered with Erie County to collect the City of Sandusky’s transient rental tax in conjunction with Erie County’s lodging tax which will allow the City’s transient rental owners to file one (1) online tax form and make payment for both the City and County lodging / transient occupancy taxes due.
Beginning February 1, 2021 each transient operator must submit their monthly online tax returns through
Erie County’s payment portal.
At the time the return is filed, the full amount of the tax collected shall be remitted. The filing date for your monthly lodging/transient occupancy tax return is the 15th of the following month.
For example:
- Rents collected in January 2021 are due by February 15th, 2021.
- Rents collected in February 2021 are due by March 15th, 2021.
There is NO cost for registration with Erie County. Additional information is available at the
Erie County Auditor’s Website or you may call their office at
