Tourist tax

The Tourist Tax in Banyuls-sur-Mer

In order to improve the quality of your welcome and to make your stay ever more pleasant, your accommodation provider collects a tourist tax on behalf of the Banyuls-sur-Mer Tourist Office.
This tax is entirely devoted to the tourist actions from which you benefit directly: operation of the Tourist Office, organization of events and activities, promotion of the town.

The municipality of Banyuls-sur-Mer has chosen to introduce the tourist tax on a real basis.

This tax is levied by landlords on behalf of the Tourist Office on all tourists spending at least one night in the area.

If you would like more information, to know the rates and or the terms of collection and repayment, go to our website dedicated to the tourist tax: https://banyulssurmer.taxesejour.fr

Rating and digital operators

If your property is classified, be sure to inform the digital operators so that they collect the tourist tax at the rate corresponding to your classification.
