No dedicated STR ordinance found in the City of Bandera municipal code. Regulations are primarily focused on the collection and remittance of the 7% Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) for stays under 30 days.
To host an Airbnb in Bandera, you don't need a specific short-term rental permit, but you must register with the city for tax purposes. You are required to collect a 7% local Hotel Occupancy Tax from your guests and file reports quarterly with the City Secretary. If your property is outside city limits in Bandera County, you must pay a 4% county tax instead. Always check your HOA rules, as they can still prohibit STRs even if the city does not.
