Meals and Rooms Tax Statistics

The Vermont Department of Taxes publishes Meals and Rooms Tax and Sales and Use Tax data by month, Quarter, calendar year, and fiscal year. Preliminary reports are created 75 days after the end of the filing period. Updated reports are created 180 days after the end of the filing period; updated reports include more returns for any given period.

The report presents taxable receipts of restaurant meals, lodging, and alcoholic beverages served in restaurants (so, sales dollars). This is NOT the tax revenue (tax dollars); you will calculate that by multiplying the taxable receipts by the appropriate tax rate. Review the Guide to Meals and Rooms Tax and Sales and Use Tax Statistical Data for detailed information on how the spreadsheets are formatted and how to read the data.

Tax Rates for Meals, Lodging, and Alcohol:

  • 9.0% on sales of prepared and restaurant meals

  • 9.0% on sales of lodging and meeting rooms in hotels

  • 10.0% on sales of alcoholic beverages served in restaurants

Local Option Tax

Certain Municipalities may also impose a local option tax on meals and rooms.
