Niseko Town Bed Tax
The calculation method and report format have been discussed with Niseko Town, and it is believed they will accept this approach.
Please verify with your tax accountant that the reported values meet your tax reporting and payment obligations.
RoomBoss supports Niseko Town Bed Tax calculation through Product Setup → Price Component Profiles.
How Niseko Town Accommodation Tax is calculated
The applicable accommodation tax rate is determined by the booking's check-out date.
The Niseko accommodation tax uses banded tax thresholds based on the tax-exclusive accommodation amount per person, per night.
Because RoomBoss derives the accommodation tax from the total tax-inclusive booking amount, it may not always be possible to determine the exact tax amount for every booking.
In cases where the correct tax amount cannot be determined from the booking value, please contact Niseko Town Tax Office to confirm the correct tax payable.
Tax Bands
Bed tax is calculated using the following bands:
| Accommodation Amount (per person per night, tax excluded) | Niseko Tax | Hokkaido Tax | Total |
|---|---|---|---|

| ¥5,001 – ¥19,999 | ¥200 | ¥100 | ¥300 |

| ¥50,000 – ¥99,999 | ¥1,000 | ¥500 | ¥1,500 |
| ¥100,000+ | ¥2,000 | ¥500 | ¥2,500 |
Hokkaido Accommodation Tax

- Before April 2026: only Niseko Town Bed Tax is applied
- From April 2026 onwards: both Niseko Town Tax and Hokkaido Tax are applied
Important Notes
- Tax is calculated based on check-out date, not booking creation date
- Calculations depend on derived per-night values, not actual nightly pricing
- Minor discrepancies may occur due to reverse-calculation from tax-inclusive pricing
- Always verify reported values before submission
