Calculator FAQs

Quick answers before you calculate.

Does the Scotland visitor levy calculator include meals, parking or extras?

No. The calculator is designed for the accommodation charge only. Meals, parking, transport and other non-accommodation extras should be kept separate before entering the figure.

Why does the booking date matter?

Some councils have advance booking cutoff rules. For example, Edinburgh uses 1 October 2025 and West Dunbartonshire uses 1 October 2026, so the booking date can change whether a future stay is in scope.

What happens if a stay crosses the scheme start date?

The calculator only applies levy to nights from the council scheme start date onward. Nights before the scheme starts are not counted in the levyable charge.

Can I use the calculator for my official visitor levy return?

Use it as a sense-check, not as legal or tax advice. Final returns should always be checked against current council guidance and the official visitor levy reporting process.
