Basic verification complete
Corolla has no short-term rental permit requirement due to state preemption, but operators must comply with a 6% occupancy tax and specific bedroom-based trash regulations.
Score: 3 (restrictive)
In Corolla, you do not need a specific license or permit from the county to rent your home short-term because North Carolina law prohibits local registration programs. However, you must register to pay the 6% county occupancy tax and adhere to strict rules regarding the number of trash bins based on how many bedrooms your property has. Most restrictions in this area are actually enforced by individual Homeowners Associations (HOAs) rather than the county government.
