Guam
Where America's Day Begins
-
Territory-Wide: STRs are regulated locally, no territory-wide ban. Guam Dept. of Revenue and Taxation handles lodging tax, but STR rules fall to municipalities. Tourism-driven (median income $48,274, 2010) means STRs thrive.
-
Tamuning: Major STR area—requires a Guam Business License and zoning compliance via Guam Dept. of Land Management. No specific STR ordinance online, but noise/parking complaints trigger enforcement.
-
Dededo: Similar—business license needed, STRs common but no dedicated page. Check Dededo Mayor’s Office for local codes.
-
Notes: Guam’s Chamorro culture and military base boost STRs—regs are light but expect updates as tourism grows.
