You may need to pay tax on your rental income in the same year you get it.

Your rental income could be from renting out:

  • your own home or its rooms
  • a house
  • land
  • a caravan
  • a sleep-out
  • a holiday home.

How much tax you pay depends on:

  • the type of residential property you're renting out
  • whether you're renting out short-stay accommodation or long-term
  • any use of the property by you.
