Which types of accommodations are affected by Lisbon's municipal tax?
Which types of accommodations are affected by Lisbon's municipal tax?
I read on http://www.cm-lisboa.pt/uploads/media/flyerTMT_UK_web.pdf (mirror):
Who pays?
The tax on overnight stays is
applied to guests over the age
of thirteen, per person and
per overnight stay, up to a
maximum of 7 nights per stay.
Where?
Per overnight stay in tourist
resorts and local accommodation
establishments (hotels, hostels,
local accommodation, etc.).
What is the value of
the tax?
1 €per night up to a maximum of
7 € (7 overnight stays in a row, per
person].
Who is exempt?
Guests whose stay is motivated
by the need for medical services
during the period of hospitalization/
treatment+ 1 additional night [and
that of accompanying party).
It is unclear to me what types of accommodations the tax affects. E.g., if I stay at a friend's place, sleep in a public place ( beach / park), or in my car, do I have to pay the tax?

How would they even know you've slept at a friend's place? :)

I think "hotels, hostels, local accommodation, etc" is quite clear, I guess etc is there just not to enumerate camping fields, bed & breakfasts, pousadas etc. I don't see how it would mean friend's place

@Kuba Isn't a friend's place a local accommodation?

@JonathanReez Tough to see indeed unless they are already looking for it (or with a good automated citizen tracking system). But there could be some more borderline cases e.g. sleeping through CouchSurfing.com

You have to be realistic about these things. Noone is going to keep up a police force over a euro a night. So yes, hotels and such places will pay it for you, even Airbnb will force it but if there's not otherwise a money-collecting, revenue-reporting system in place for the place, you won't.
