State of Hawaii Dept of Taxation (DOTax) Annual Return and Reconciliation (Form TA-2)
The State of Hawaii Form TA-2 is used to report your State Transient Accommodations Tax (TAT) and
Timeshare Occupancy (TSO) tax activities for the taxable year. It may also be used to correct errors on
the periodic tax returns (Form TA-1). The information provided to the State of Hawai'i on the State Forms
TA-1 and TA-2 is used by the State to generate reports to the counties and form the bases for the counties’
TAT determinations. If you must pay State TAT or State TSO on properties located in Hawai'i County, you must
also PAY HCTAT to the HCTAT office directly. If you filed a TA-1 and or TA-2 with the State of Hawaii
Department of Taxation, you are deemed filed with the County. More information regarding your obligations for
State TAT can be found at https://tax.hawaii.gov/forms/a1_b2_2tat/.
