Tourist tax
What is it?
Belastingsamenwerking Oost-Brabant (BSOB) levies tourist tax because tourists use facilities in the municipality. Entrepreneurs who offer a place to sleep to tourists pay the tourist tax.
If you offer a place to sleep in your hotel, bed & breakfast, recreational home or campground, you will receive a tourist tax assessment. You can pass this amount on to the tourist who stays overnight with you.
If your guests live in the same municipality where your business is located, you do not have to pay tourist tax for your guests.
What to do.
You pay the tourist tax.
Objecting
If you disagree with the assessment, you can file an objection. In your objection, put the assessment number and explain why you disagree.
Send your objection to BSOB within 6 weeks of the date on the assessment notice.
