Information on accommodation tax
In principle, all persons who spend the night in Dresden in hotels, B&Bs, holiday accommodation or similar places of accommodation as well as on campsites are liable to pay accommodation tax.
Conference attendees and children are generally exempt from accommodation tax.
Private accommodation does not apply when the overnight stay is necessary for the guest on professional grounds or for reasons of professional training or further education and this necessity is stipulated informally or in writing by the employer, educational institution, association, or foundation.
Furthermore, a non-private overnight stay does apply even without presenting the aforementioned evidence if either the invoice for the accommodation service is issued to the employer or the educational institution and the invoice is paid directly by the employer or the educational institution or the reservation of the accommodation is made directly by the employer, the educational institution, the association, or the foundation.
Private accommodation does also not apply if hotel room allotments reserved in advance by the employer or educational institution are used and a written confirmation issued in advance by the employer or educational institution is available which is valid for a longer period of time or for an unlimited period of time stating that these allotments are used exclusively for professional purposes, training, or further education such as congresses or conferences
