Occupancy tax collection and remittance by Airbnb in Italy

Tourist Tax collection and remittance options in Italy

In light of the 2024 Budget Law amendment to Law Decree 50/2017 effective 1 January 2024, Airbnb has the obligation to collect Tourist Taxes on behalf of short term rentals for stays up to 30 days (“locazione breve”). If you are a short term rental Host in a municipality that imposes a Tourist Tax, Airbnb will collect and remit this on your behalf. This list provides the short term rental categories for which we will collect and remit Tourist Taxes.

I’m a host offering other types of accommodations that do not qualify as a short-term rental (e.g. an extra-hotel accommodation facility): what should I do?

If you are a host offering other types of accommodations that do not qualify as a short-term rental (i.e. a listing with a category that is not on this list) and your municipality imposes a Tourist Tax, you are responsible for collecting and remitting tourist taxes.

To learn more about how to collect tourist taxes manually, see How does manual occupancy tax collection and payment work?

My City opted to use the pass through tax feature where I set up the rules in my account and Airbnb remitted the Tourist Taxes to the authorities. What do I do now?

Nothing! Airbnb will now collect and remit the Tourist Tax on behalf of short term rentals in your area.

I’m a host offering a short-term rental where Airbnb already collects and remits Tourist Tax: what has changed? 

If you are a host with a listing in one of the municipalities listed below (see the “Default Tourist Tax 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.
