Who pays the tourist tax?
People accommodated for payment pay a tourist tax to their host.
• Persons staying for a fee or free of charge.
These are people who pay to occupy the accommodation, or who stay there for free as part of a gift box or a special offer, for example.
• Subject persons.
According to the terms of Article L. 2333-29 of the General Code of Territorial Communities, the tourist tax is established on people who are not domiciled in the municipality. As of January 1, 2020, there is no longer any reference to the residence tax and any person not domiciled in the territory of the municipality where he is staying is therefore subject to the residence tax.
Consequently, a person who is only a resident without being domiciled is indeed subject to the tourist tax; a person who is not domiciled in the municipality but who has a second home there is subject to the tourist tax.
• Non-exempt persons.
- Minors,
– Holders of a seasonal employment contract employed in the territory of the community,
– People benefiting from emergency accommodation or temporary rehousing. The reasons or length of stay are not taken into consideration.
