Is UNT exempt from paying all state hotel taxes?
Please remember that UNT is only exempted from paying this tax for hotels in Texas. UNT is required to pay this tax when the hotel stay occurs in any other state in the U.S. other than Texas. If the hotel was outside Texas, please include the state hotel taxes as an expense when preparing travel vouchers. If the stay was in Texas the tax should not appear on the hotel bill at all provided a Texas State Occupancy Tax Exemption Certificate was presented by the traveler at check-in time. Travelers can even have the hotel clerk log in to the Travel Forms page at http://pps.unt.edu to print a copy of that form at check-in time.
