Rates come from the City of Verona rate sheet, in force since July 1, 2024, and the city’s 2026 budget resolution confirms them for 2026 (checked November 2026). There are no seasonal rates, so the tax does not rise during the Arena opera season.

Who is exempt from the Verona tourist tax?

According to the City of Verona regulation and its official guest notice, these guests do not pay:

  • Registered residents of Verona.
  • Children under 15.
  • Guests of youth hostels and non-profit facilities.
  • Patients having treatment locally plus one companion, one companion per hospitalized patient, and up to two parents of a hospitalized child.
  • People with disabilities who are not self-sufficient, and their companion.
  • Two coach drivers, plus one escort for every 25 group members.
  • Armed forces, police and firefighters on duty, and students in ESU university residences.
  • People housed for emergency or humanitarian reasons.

Exemptions and reductions are not cumulative and usually require a declaration at check-in.

How do you pay the tourist tax in Verona?

You pay the property by the end of your stay and get a receipt. The property, or the booking platform, passes the money to the city every quarter. When you book through a platform that has an agreement with the city, the tax is 7% of the room cost, capped at €5.00 per person per night, according to the rate sheet and the regulation. Check your booking summary to see whether the tax was already charged.

How the 4-night cap works in Verona

You pay for a maximum of four nights per person per month. A stay of up to 30 days that runs across two months also counts as one block of four nights, according to the City of Verona regulation as amended in July 2025.

Will the Verona tourist tax change in 2027?

The city confirmed the 2024 rates for 2026. No 2027 rates had been published when we checked, so this page is on our watchlist. If you plan to stay at Lake Garda, note that the lake towns set their own rules.
