Bed Tax (PK)

The bed tax a hotel owes for a period, worked out from room revenue at the property's bed tax rate, with a daily breakdown for the provincial return.

Bed Tax works out the provincial bed tax on your room revenue for a period, with the room nights and revenue of each day, so you can fill in the return.

Before you begin

• Your role needs the hotel compliance permission. See Users & Roles.
• The property needs its bed tax rate. Rates differ by province, so EloERP never assumes one. Enter your province's rate in Bed tax % on Property Settings.

Where to find it

Open Reports → Hotel PMS Reports → Bed Tax (PK). It is also in the PK Compliance pack in the PMS Reports Hub.

Run the report

1. Set From and To to the return period, for example Last month.

Read the report

• Tax rate, marked from property settings, or not configured.
• Room revenue and Total nights for the period.
• Bed tax liability: room revenue times the rate.
• Daily breakdown: each Date with the Nights sold, room revenue and Bed tax @ the rate.

Room revenue is the nightly rates of confirmed, in-house and checked-out stays in those dates.

Common questions

The report shows not configured. The Bed tax % box on Property Settings is blank. Enter the rate before you file.

My hotel is exempt. Enter 0 in Bed tax %. The report then shows zero without the warning.

Does this post the tax to my accounts? No. It is a report. Tax entered on reservations posts when folios are settled.
