At CasaBooking, we apply a principle of total transparency regarding commission billing. It’s not always easy to explain, so here’s a clear summary:

In short, the total amount billed by CasaBooking is 30% VAT included on rental income

• The largest share corresponds to the re-invoicing of partner site commissions (Airbnb, Booking.com, etc.), averaging 20% VAT included (between 18,6% and 21.4%, applied to rent plus extra fees)
• The balance, about 10% VAT included (≈ 9.6% VAT incl. or 8% excl. VAT on average in 2025), represents CasaBooking’s remuneration for management and services.

*For some older contracts, CasaBooking used to bill 28% VAT included. However, since partner sites such as Airbnb and Booking.com have increased their commissions, the average rate is now about 20% VAT included (compared to 18% previously).

Booking.com’s and Airbnb’s rate applies to rent plus cleaning or other extras and ranges between 18,6% and 21.4%.
