Frequently asked questions
If a cruise ship remains moored for at least 4 consecutive hours between 21.00 and 06.00 hours the following morning, it’s defined as an overnight stay.
A cruise ship is a seagoing or inland vessel used to transport tourists at sea or across inland waterways.
The City receives information about the stay of ships and the number of passengers on board from external systems. It uses this information to calculate how much tax is due.
