Greek Hotels – Airbnb: The green fee – How much will be paid
A special provision for the resilience fee is included in the tax bill under consultation
The “revelations” about the “end of resilience to the climate crisis” were made through the text of the tax bill that was put up for public consultation.
In particular, according to what is mentioned in the bill, for the period from March to October, the entire resilience fee will be imposed on hotel businesses and a reduced rate for the period of November-February, according to the tax bill that was submitted to public consultation while it is extended to short-term rental properties and for villas (detached houses over 80 sq.m.) whose tenants will pay the maximum amount (10 euros per day).
With the provisions of the draft law, the requests of the hoteliers seem to be partially satisfied, although their request for the imposition of the fee on all businesses involved in the tourism chain remains “unanswered”. As can be seen from the bill, winter tourism will also be charged with a reduced fee.
As stated in article 53 of Law 4389/2016 (A’ 94), on the residence tax, it is replaced by a new one that provides for the imposition of a resilience fee to the climate crisis. The fee of up to ten euros per day is imposed on all villas as it is stated that “if the properties available through short-term lease are single-family houses of more than eighty (80) square meters, a durability fee of ten (10) euros is imposed”.
In particular, the bill states, among other things:
