Occupancy tax collection and remittance by Airbnb in Italy

Custom occupancy tax collection and remittance options in Italy

If you are a host with a short term rental (a short term rental is any listing with a category on this list) outside of the below municipalities where Airbnb is collecting and remitting on your behalf (see “Default occupancy taxes collection and remittance by Airbnb in Italy” section below) but within a municipality that imposes a Tourist Tax in Italy and has opted in to this program, you can now use the new custom tax tool to set the Tourist Tax rate and rules in the Taxes section under Pricing and Availability in your listing page. With this feature, you can set the type of tax, and the way your municipality wants to collect it (on percentage per booking, or fee per guest per night), and what your municipality wants to collect it on (nightly price, fees, and other charges). Airbnb will collect the tax, based on the rates and rules you set, from guests and remit it directly to the Tax Authorities in your municipality on your behalf. Visit your local municipality website for more information on what rate and rules to set. If your municipality has a Tourist Tax and has not opted into the program mentioned above, then the tool will not yet be available to you. Airbnb will notify you once it’s available.

If you are a host with a non-short term rental (a non-short term rental is any listing with a category that is not on this list) within any municipality that imposes a Tourist Tax in Italy, you are eligible to collect taxes directly from guests by using our professional hosting tools. With this feature, you can set the type of tax, and the way your municipality wants to collect it (on percentage per booking, or fee per guest per night), and what you want to collect it on (nightly price, fees, and other charges). Check out our article on adding taxes to your listings for more information.

If you are a host with a listing in one of the municipalities listed below (see the “Default occupancy taxes collection and remittance by Airbnb in Italy” section below), Airbnb will continue to collect and remit the Tourist Tax on your behalf unless otherwise noted. There will be no change - Airbnb will continue to collect and remit as we are today. See below for more information.

Note: Hosts located in these areas are responsible for assessing all other tax obligations, including state and city jurisdictions. Hosts with listings in these areas should also review their agreement with Airbnb under the Terms of Service and familiarize themselves with the Occupancy Tax provisions which allow us to collect and remit taxes on their behalf and explain how the process works. Under those provisions, hosts instruct and authorize Airbnb to collect and remit Occupancy Taxes on their behalf in jurisdictions where Airbnb decides to facilitate such collection. If a host believes applicable laws exempt the host from collecting a tax that Airbnb collects and remits on the host's behalf, the host has agreed that, by accepting the reservation, the host is waiving that exemption. If a host does not want to waive an exemption the host believes exists, the host should not accept the reservation.
