About Tourist Tax Calculator and our sources

Tourist Tax Calculator is an independent project that collects official tourist tax rates and turns them into a simple calculator. We are not affiliated with any government, tax authority, hotel or booking site.

Rules we follow

  • Every rate comes from an official source (law, ordinance, municipal/regional/national tax authority page or official open data). The link and the date we checked it are printed under the figure.
  • No blogs or aggregators are used as sources. If we cannot read an official source, the destination is not published.
  • Rates are set by local authorities and can change. The accommodation collects the tax and applies the official rules: this site is information, not tax advice.
