Short-Term Accommodations (STA) & Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT)

To ensure compliance, all Short-Term Accommodation (STA) operators in the Town of Lincoln are required to complete both the STA Licensing Application and the Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT) Registration.

Why Complete Both STA & MAT Registration?

  1. STA Licensing Application: To legally operate as a Short-Term Accommodation or Bed & Breakfast Establishment in Lincoln, you must complete the STA Licensing Application. This ensures compliance with local regulations and registration with the municipality.
  2. MAT Registration: The Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT) is a mandatory tax on overnight accommodations in Lincoln, used to support tourism and economic development. All STA operators must also complete the MAT Registration form.
