Tourist tax
When staying overnight in a hotel, guesthouse, cottage or campground, you pay tourist tax.
This tax is charged to you by the owner of the vacation accommodation. Every year, the owner of the vacation home submits a statement to the municipality of the number of overnight stays. The owner remits the tourist tax to the municipality.
What does it cost?
The tourist tax rate for 2025 and 2026 is €1.50 per person, per night.
Do you own a recreational property?
