Airbnb collects and remits the tourist tax in the canton of Fribourg.
Cantonal and regional tourist tax under the Loi sur le tourisme (LT) of 8.10.2021 and the Règlement sur le tourisme (RT) of 7.12.2021 (both in force since 1.1.2022; the RT has been unchanged since then); uniform rate of CHF 3.00 according to the UFT rate sheet (approved by the State Council, as at 1.1.2023; the previous law applied until the end of 2022, Art. 58 LT). Applies in all Fribourg municipalities; municipalities may only levy a tourism tax on businesses (Art. 36 LT), not their own guest tax. Collected by the Centrale fribourgeoise d'encaissement (UFT); registration and reporting through CheckIn-FR are mandatory. Landlords report guest nights and collect the tax (Art. 34 para. 3 LT); the owners’ flat rate (150 nights × CHF 3.00, due from 1 March) covers only owners and their close family. According to the UFT, Airbnb collects the tax directly (agreement between the UFT and Airbnb).
