same interest rate as the Arizona Department of Revenue. The interest rate is
set every quarter and goes into effect on October 1st, January 1st, April

Changes to Tax Code Relating to Transient
Rental (Hotel/Motel) Tax
Effective January 1, 2007, the City of Tucson
adopted code changes that affect transient rental
businesses and businesses
who provide services
through hotels. These changes make Tucson’s code
similar to the State of Arizona’s code and other
Arizona cities’ tax
codes. Tucson’s interpretation of
the code (where state and city codes are
similar) will
be following the Arizona Transaction Privilege Tax
Ruling TPR
06-1 and the accompanying matrix.
Documents
pertaining to the changes are below:

Rental (Hotel/Motel) Tax Changes
