The formulas
- Classified rental: category rate × adult guests × nights
- Unclassified rental: (nightly price ÷ number of guests) × rate, up to the cap, × adult guests × nights
- Additional tax: the percentage is added to the rate per person per night
Example, unclassified rental: €150 a night for 4 guests including 2 minors, 5% rate, €2.30 cap and 10% additional tax. 150 ÷ 4 × 5% = €1.88; with 10%: €2.07 per person per night, i.e. €16.56 for 4 nights and 2 adults.

Frequently asked questions
How is the tourist tax calculated for an unclassified rental?
The nightly price is divided by the number of guests, then multiplied by the rate voted by the municipality (between 1% and 5%). The result cannot exceed the cap that applies in the municipality. Any additional tax is then added.
Do children pay the tourist tax?
No: minors are exempt. They do count, however, in the number of guests used to divide the nightly price for an unclassified rental.
Who pays the tourist tax to the municipality?
Airbnb collects and remits it for non-professional hosts when it takes the payment. On Booking.com, it depends on the settings. For direct bookings, you collect and remit it.
