A visitor levy will help keep Wales beautiful and promote sustainable tourism 🏴
Local authorities will be able to choose to charge on overnight stays in visitor accommodation. This small contribution could help:
🏖️ Keep Welsh beaches clean
🥾 Maintain our beautiful walking trails
❤️ Support local communities.
Visitors will be contributing to a sustainable future for tourism in Wales. The levy would be set at:
- 75p per person per night for people staying in hostels and on campsite pitches.
- £1.25 per person per night for those staying in all other accommodation types.
If every council chose to introduce a levy in their area, this small charge could generate up to £33million for our communities. 2027 is the earliest a local council could introduce a levy after consulting with local residents.
