Culture and Tourism Tax
The Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg levies a culture and tourism tax (KTT) to tax paid overnight stays. The income from the culture and tourism tax is intended to benefit tourism, cultural and sporting projects, according to the Hamburg Senate.
Accordingly, a culture and tourism tax (KTT) must be paid for overnight stays by private and business travelers. For you, this means that we as a hotel business have to calculate this tax for every overnight stay and pay it accordingly. The tax is based on the price of the overnight stay.
