Kansas HB2481 modifies transient guest tax definitions and rental permit processing during the FIFA 2026 World Cup.
Kansas HB2481 removes the two-bedroom requirement for properties to qualify as hotels, motels, or tourist courts, thus requiring transient guest tax collection from all qualifying rentals. The bill also mandates timely processing of rental permits and expands the definition of transient guest to include those occupying rooms for not more than consecutive days. Additionally, it authorizes cities and counties to expand sales of alcoholic beverages. This act aims to facilitate short-term rentals and improve tourism during the FIFA 2026 World Cup.
