PORTUGAL
The Tourist Occupancy Tax is collected by tourist enterprises and local accommodation establishments to guests over the age of 13. It was applied with the purpose of minimizing the difficulties that arise from the significant growth of tourism in Portugal. The amount is determined and charged by each municipality and is payable locally. It is not included in and is separate from the price of your accommodation. Tourist enterprises and local accommodation establishments are only responsible for collecting the Occupancy Tax at check-in to hand over to the competent authorities.
