Is there a way to configure the tourist tax for the islands of the Netherlands correctly, where the first day is paid on the ferry, and the guest needs to pay the hotel as of the second day per night/per person, with an automatic rule, so the hotel doesn’t need to credit the first day all the time ?

@mauritsbots @nstockman We collect the number of nights guests stay at the hotel. It is always the number of nights +1. Even if guests do not stay overnight they pay 1x tourist tax via boat ticket. We have nothing to correct for this. E.g. 2 nights = 3-day stay. Hotel does 2 nights, the boat service 1 day.

Or you can add a product rule that auto corrects the rate by adding a minus city tax for the first day
If you want to distinguish it even better, just call the product: “Paid Ferry’s City tax” and if you don’t want it to appear on the final invoice you just tick the option
Hope you get what I mean and that it will be helpful
The product rule would be a solution, but unfortunately the Tax paid on the boat for the first day = €2.23, and the Tax to be paid in the hotel per night/person =€ 1.97.
So I think the only solution is the hotel credits manually the first night, or depending on there thoughts, they leave the tax as it is within the hotel.
@Guy van Heuzen you can create 2 different city tax products: the boat one and the hotel one and you adapt the product rule to “resonate” with the boat city tax
