Tax Compliance

The payment of sales and use tax is MANDATORY for ALL travel confirmed within the U.S. The present economy is resulting in much stricter enforcement of regional tax law, and litigation is resulting for those who are failing to pay. Travel companies not including the collection and submission of these fees in all of their inventory purchases are no longer operating in a "gray area". They are flirting with potential fines, penalties, and seizure of assets.

Gimmie Shelter Vacations was formed by a CPA and Attorney who have extensive background in taxation issues relating to the hospitality industry. ALL RESERVATIONS made by Gimmie Shelter Vacations for travel within the U.S. will INCLUDE applicable sales and use taxes for the areas confirmed. Taxes will be submitted to the proper state and regional authorities as required.

All inventory purchases made through GSV are in compliance with state and local tax laws throughout the U.S. However, inventory purchases from other sources may not be. The importance of collection and submission of these taxes can not be overstated. The consequences of failing to pay are serious. If you have any questions regarding how to comply, please feel free to contact David Dougherty, CPA, at 1-386-668-3328."
