PARIS, Oct 4 — While Venice plans to roll out a long-postponed daytrippers tourist tax in 2024, likely implementing it in spring, Amsterdam is set to increase the cost of its tourist tax.Amsterdam is renowned for its canals, its cycling culture, its museums and its red light district as well as... its tourist tax!The city’s authorities announced that this tax, which concerns visitors, is set to rise next year to 12.5 per cent.
This would allow the city to bring in €65 million more from tourist taxes from 2027 onwards. This financial windfall would be used to cope with the extremely high tourist numbers, many of which come from the various cruise ships that include the Dutch port in their itineraries. This isn’t the first time that a rise in the tourist tax has been envisaged as a tool to limit the damage caused by overtourism. A regulation that went into effect on January 1, 2020 had the same objective.At the same time, the rate was raised to 10 per cent for accommodation rentals such as those offered via Airbnb.
