Tax details

Exemptions, penalties, filing information, and effective dates from the linked sources.

Haywood County: Recorded exemptions

Occupancy taxes piggyback the state accommodations sales-tax base: exempt are accommodations rented to the same person for 90 or more days, private residences rented fewer than 15 days per year, and accommodations included in a school or camp tuition/fee; counties impose no unique local exemptions (G.S. 105-164.4F; UNC School of Government occupancy-tax guidance).

Haywood County: Recorded penalties and interest

Under the uniform provisions (G.S. 153A-155): monthly returns to the county finance officer by the 20th; failure to file is 5% per month up to 25%, failure to pay is 10% (G.S. 105-236, per UNC School of Government guidance) (G.S. 153A-155(d)-(e)). Pre-uniform session-law counties use the standard boilerplate: $10/day failure-to-file penalty plus 5% of the tax per month after 30 days; willful evasion is a misdemeanor (e.g., S.L. 1987-472).
