Tourist tax calculator

Local rules, explicit dates

Tourist tax is not one universal percentage. Amsterdam uses 12.5% of the taxable overnight price excluding VAT. Barcelona separates the regional levy from the municipal surcharge and limits taxable nights to seven. The applicable rule can depend on reservation prepayment.

Verified presets cover Amsterdam nights in 2026 and Barcelona nights from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. Other locations need your own verified rate. This calculates the tourist levy only, without any additional VAT. Verify VAT treatment separately before collection. It does not file declarations or remit tax.

Paris city nights in 2026 are also covered: fixed classified rates or 5% of the unclassified price per occupant per night, capped at €4.90 before additional taxes. Departmental 10%, SGP 15% and IDFM 200% are calculated separately. Other French municipalities and the forfait regime are not covered automatically.

Check who collected before asking the guest to pay

Airbnb collects and remits tourist tax in Amsterdam. Other locations and booking arrangements differ. Verify the actual booking statement and record the amount collected elsewhere. Request only the remaining tax; never assume all Airbnb or Booking.com bookings have the same treatment.
