The Tourist tax setting holds a written instruction that tells the assistant how to calculate the tourist (city) tax for each booking at a property. Superhost can draft it for you from your property’s location using AI — you then review and edit it freely. You remain responsible for the figures. You’ll find it in the property settings, under Tourist tax.

​
What you see

At the top, the Location box shows the city, region, and country taken from the property’s address. The jurisdiction is read from there, not edited on this screen — if it’s wrong or missing, tap Edit address to fix it on the property’s info page. The Tax instruction field holds the actual brief. Next to its label, a small status tag tells you where the instruction stands: Next to the status, the screen shows a version such as · v2. It goes up by one each time the instruction is regenerated or saved, so you can tell at a glance whether you’re looking at the latest revision.

​
Generate the instruction

1

Confirm the location

Make sure the Location box shows the right city and country. If no address is set, the AI has no jurisdiction to research and the generate button stays disabled.
2

Optionally set Category and Currency

Category is optional — fill it in only where local tariffs vary by official classification (for example a star rating). Currency is the currency the tax is charged in, e.g. EUR.
3

Generate with AI

Tap Generate brief with AI (it reads Regenerate with AI once an instruction already exists). The status switches to Generating… and the app researches your local tax rules. This can take a few minutes — you can leave the page and it keeps running.
If the property has no address yet, you’ll see a prompt to set it first so the AI knows which jurisdiction to research. Add the address on the property info page, then come back.

​
Edit and save

When generation finishes, the drafted instruction appears in Tax instruction and any Sources the AI used are listed below as links you can open to check its work. Read it through, edit the text as needed (rates, taxable base, age bands, caps, exemptions, and how it’s remitted), then tap Save. The status becomes Edited by you and you’ll see a Saved confirmation.
The Save button is only available once an instruction exists. If you haven’t generated one yet, the screen reminds you to Generate a brief first to enable editing.
The instruction is AI-drafted from public sources. Always verify the rates and rules against your local authority — you remain responsible for the amounts charged to guests.
