Tourist tax declaration forms sent

January 20, 2026, 11:30 a.m.

We recently sent tourist tax return forms to all accommodation providers known to us. Please enter your turnover for the 2025 tax year on this form. Based on your return, we will issue a tourist tax assessment in May 2026.

You must pay tourist tax if you offer people the opportunity to stay overnight in exchange for payment. The tourist tax may be recovered from the person staying overnight with you.

Reporting requirement

Are you offering people the opportunity to stay overnight for a fee for the first time? Then you have a reporting obligation and must report it to the municipality. 

Directly arrange

Would you like to register a (new) overnight accommodation location with the municipality? Go to www.opsterland.nl/toeristenbelasting and fill in the form.
