Direct answer: budget €1-5 per person per night for up to 5 consecutive nights. Non-residents staying overnight pay the accommodation tax, and guests aged 10-15 pay half of the applicable rate. Ask your hotel, B&B, apartment host or other accommodation for the exact rate before arrival because the official tariff changes by accommodation type and classification, location, and high or low season.

You pay the tourist tax to the accommodation, not at a city ticket booth. It is normally collected at check-in or check-out and may appear separately from the advertised room price. Ask the property which payment method it accepts and request confirmation of the nightly rate, the number of chargeable nights and the total. For a longer stay, the charge stops after the first 5 consecutive nights.
They are different charges. The tourist tax on this page is tied to an overnight stay and is collected by your accommodation. The Venice day-trip access fee applies under a separate system to certain visitors on designated dates. Do not add the two automatically or treat one as proof that the other is due. Check the Venice access fee guide separately for your date and visitor category.
Use €1-5 per person per night as the planning range, for no more than 5 consecutive nights. This is not a quote for your booking. Your accommodation confirms the exact rate based on its type and classification, location, and the season.
Guests aged 10-15 pay half of the applicable rate. Ask the accommodation to confirm the amount for every guest in your booking. This guide does not assume any other exemption.
Not always. It is commonly collected separately by the accommodation at check-in or check-out. Check the booking conditions and ask the property to state the applicable nightly rate and total before you arrive.
The tax is charged for a maximum of 5 consecutive nights. For 1 adult staying 7 consecutive nights at a confirmed rate of €5, the example total is 1 x 5 x €5 = €25. Use the rate supplied by your accommodation.
