Albufeira Council now charges a tourist tax for all stays during the main tourist season (For 2025 this is 1 Apr 25 to 21 Oct 25). This tax must be paid by guests directly to Albufeira Council using a simple online form; it not the responsibility of accommodation owners to collect it on the council's behalf.
The tourist tax is €2 per guest age 12 or over, for the first seven nights of any stay during the Apr - Oct period.
Payment is made by credit or debit card.
Note: It is necessary to include a "0" for guests up to 12 years if there are none; the field cannot be left blank.
