Disclosure: Electronic Delivery Consent of Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Information Tax Returns

By choosing to receive electronic copies of your IRS Information tax returns, you acknowledge and consent to the following terms:

1. You have a computer with Internet access.

For the best experience, we encourage you to use current versions of Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. If you prefer to use Internet Explorer, please upgrade to IE9 or higher. You also need to have hardware that supports this software. We can’t provide technical support if you’re using an outdated browser.

2. You will be able to view Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) files and read Adobe PDF files.

To download and print a PDF file, install Adobe Acrobat Reader. We will notify you within 3 to 5 business days if any changes are made to the method of electronic delivery.

3. You agree to electronically receive the following IRS information tax returns: Form 1099-K, Form 1099-MISC, and Form 1099-NEC.

Your IRS information tax returns remain available electronically for one year following the date it is originally made available to you electronically. You may obtain a paper copy of the electronic information by printing it from your computer.

If your account is suspended, terminated or cancelled, your consent is nullified and a copy of your IRS information tax return will be mailed to the address provided on your Form W-9.

4. If you select electronic delivery, you will receive email and online communications and disclosures regarding your account instead of physical mail. Communications will not be provided in paper form unless you have elected not to receive electronic communications.

Your consent applies to all IRS information tax returns we send, disclose, or communicate to you online. In addition to emails with embedded links and attachments, this includes disclosures, statements, and notices such as the annual privacy notice posted on our website.

5. You permit Airbnb to obtain your electronic signature if you choose to sign certain communications. If you do sign electronically, your electronic signature will bind you to the terms and conditions to the same extent as if you signed the communications on paper with an ink signature.

6. You will update your Airbnb account for any changes to your email address.

For instructions on how to update your email address, read this article. Information that is required by law, such as IRS information tax returns, can be resent to you. However, other communications will not be resent if we receive an electronic notice that the email is undeliverable due to an incorrect email address.

7. When requesting IRS information tax returns in paper form, your request will not nullify this consent for future electronic deliveries of IRS information tax returns and other Airbnb online communications unless consent is withdrawn.

You may request an IRS information tax return in paper form by contacting us.
