Why do you have to pay tourist tax?
Do you own a hotel, B&B, or campground? If so, you pay a tourist tax. The revenue from the tourist tax helps fund municipal services, such as the maintenance of public spaces and other facilities that tourists can use.
How much tourist tax do you pay?
At the end of the year, you will receive an invitation to report the number of overnight stays in MijnGBLT. Based on your report, we will determine the final tax assessment for the tourist tax. We also use your report to calculate a preliminary tax assessment for the following year. The rates below show the amounts that apply in your municipality.
