Airbnb short-term rental accounting NZ

Property Accounting
Support for rental investments, Airbnb & short-term rentals

We work with rental investors, Airbnb hosts and short-term rental owners in Christchurch, Queenstown, Auckland, and beyond to simplify tax, GST, and deductions. Whether you manage one property or several, we’ll help you meet your obligations and maximise your returns.

What we offer

Running a short-term rental? You’ll need to navigate income tax, allowable deductions, and possibly GST. We specialise in tax for Airbnb hosts and short-stay rentals and we’ll help you get it right.

​

When you rent out all or part of your property through Airbnb, Bookabach, or other platforms, you:

​

  • Must declare the income in your tax return

  • May be eligible to claim specific deductions

  • Might need to register for and pay GST depending on your rental income

​

There are also special tax rules based on how the property is used and the line between personal and business use can get tricky. That’s where we come in.

We’ll help you with:

  • Income Tax for Short-Term Rentals

  • Claiming Allowable Deductions

  • GST and Residential Property Rules

  • Capital Gains Tax Considerations

  • Property Type-Specific Tax Advice
