ASSEMBLY COMMERCE AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
COMMITTEE
STATEMENT TO
ASSEMBLY, No. 2237
with committee amendments
STATE OF NEW JERSEY
DATED: DECEMBER 11, 2023
The Assembly Commerce and Economic Development Committee
reports favorably Assembly Bill No. 2237, with committee
amendments.
This bill, as amended, modifies certain definitions that are
applicable to the State’s transient accommodation taxes and fees.
Specifically, the bill alters the definitions of “obtained through a
transient marketplace” and “transient space marketplace.”
Under current law, “obtained through a transient space
marketplace” means that payment for the accommodation is made
through a means provided by the marketplace or travel agency, either
directly or indirectly, regardless of which person or entity receives the
payment, and where the contracting for the accommodation is made
through the marketplace or travel agency. The bill, as amended,
changes this definition to specify that the rental of the accommodation
is arranged through a means provided by the marketplace or travel
agency, regardless of whether payment for the accommodation is made
through a means provided by the marketplace or travel agency.
Further, the bill modifies the definition of “transient space
marketplace.” Under current law, a transient space marketplace means
a marketplace or travel agency through which a person may offer
transient accommodations to customers and through which customers
may arrange for occupancies of transient accommodations. The bill
changes the definition to specify that a marketplace or travel agency
provides the service in exchange for a fee.
As amended and reported by the committee, Assembly Bill No.
2237 is identical to Senate Bill No. 505 (1R), which was also reported
by the committee on this date.
COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS:
The committee amendments modify the definition of “obtained
through a transient space marketplace” to mean that the rental of the
accommodation is arranged through a means provided by the
marketplace or travel agency, regardless of whether payment for the
2
accommodation is made through a means provided by the marketplace
or travel agency.
