KAUFEN

A large number of countries and individual cities in Europe have been collecting tourist tax from vacationers for several years, but in 2024 the list will increase. As schengenvisainfo.com explains, this is due to the need to support the industry after the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition, in this way, countries are trying to combat excessive tourism.

In which cities the tax will be introduced for the first time, and where the amounts will increase compared to the current year, we will tell you further in the article.

According to preliminary data, Amsterdam will lead the ranking of cities in terms of tourist tax, as the government has decided to raise the tax in 2024 to 12.5% of the cost of a hotel room. The tax will apply not only to tourists who decide to stay in the city, but also to cruise ship passengers.
