Visitor Levy Engagement

Powys CC are gathering views from residents, businesses and visitors to help us explore whether Powys should introduce a small overnight visitor levy as set out by the Welsh Government’s “Visitor Accommodation (Register and Levy)” legislation.

The Visitor Levy is a small charge on overnight stays in visitor accommodation. They have agreed a cautious approach: not to implement a levy at this stage. Instead, they are carrying out this engagement to gather views which will be reported back to Cabinet and full council to help shape what happens next.

The closing date for responses is: 30th September 2026
