What the City asks for

The rule is quarterly. The evidence is reservation-level.

Quarterly STR is designed around the core Tier 3 and Tier 4 workflow described in the City’s public host reporting materials.

Every quarter

Report utilization

Enter the number of days the licensed dwelling, or any portion of it, was used for short-term residential occupancy during the quarter.

When activity exists

Support the total

Booking activity should identify reservation dates and nights so the quarterly number can be reviewed against the underlying records.

At zero activity

Still submit

Zero booked days does not remove the quarterly reporting obligation for Tier 3 and Tier 4 hosts.

Verify against the source

Confirm the details in the City’s host reporting guidelines and Accela submission guide.

Three-step preparation

Clean the quarter before typing into the portal.

Use the product as a review layer between raw platform exports and the City submission screen.

01

Identify the license and quarter

Choose Tier 3 or Tier 4, enter the licensed dwelling details, and confirm the reporting period and due date.

02

Add every booking source

Combine Airbnb, Vrbo, direct-booking CSVs, or supported PDF activity so duplicates and missing context are easier to spot.

03

Review, download, submit

Inspect included and excluded rows, download the workpaper, then enter the reviewed total in Accela yourself.

Common questions

Know what the software does—and what it does not do.

The City’s current materials remain the authoritative source for filing requirements.

What do STR and STRO mean?

STR means short-term rental. STRO means short-term residential occupancy, the term San Diego uses in its licensing and quarterly reporting materials.

Who files San Diego STRO quarterly reports?

The City’s guidance applies quarterly reporting to Tier 3 and Tier 4 hosts. Tier 1 and Tier 2 hosts are not part of this quarterly reporting workflow.

Is a report required when the property had zero booked days?

Yes. The City’s host reporting guidelines state that a quarterly report is still required when the number of days booked is zero, although supporting booking documentation is not required for zero activity.

What happens to a stay that crosses a quarter boundary?

The City’s reporting guidelines assign the entire reservation to the quarter in which checkout occurs rather than splitting the stay across two quarterly reports.

Does Quarterly STR file the report?

No. Quarterly STR creates a draft workpaper and normalized audit CSV. You review the totals and submit through the official City portal.
