    Hi,

    The hotel of my client has services with a 5.5% VAT (extra bed, baby bed, pet package) and others services with a 10% VAT (breakfast).

    Is it possible to have two different tax rates for services?

    Thank you in advance for any reply.

    Hello Fab!

    There is no way to do what you’re asking for at the moment, unfortunately. If we get more requests from our customers, we will consider adding this feature to one of our future plugin updates.

    Hello Valerie,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I will see how to add the second VAT % by programming even if I know that I should add this code at each update of the plugin.

    If the MotoPress team makes this change, it would be better – from a European perspective – to link a tax rate with a service (by adding a selector of tax rate in the Price block of “Edit a service” and to use it for the calculation of taxes and prices of the service with taxes).

    Some other suggestions for small improvement (after discussion with my client, the hotel owner):

    – Add a <textarea> field in back-end “Bookings/Client” to permit to the owner of the hotel to include remark on the client (Example: “does not want flowers but prefers chocolates”, “prefers the view on the lake”, etc.). It allows to personalize the contact with the regular client.

    – In back-end, to display the list of reservations of a client to know when the client has already come. Maybe the list of “All Booking” could do this if it were possible to filter it with client ID and/or first and last name.

    – To correct the loose of adults and children numbers between “Search results page” and “Reservation confirmation page” (cookies?).

    – In “Reservation confirmation page/Choose additional services”, to replace the wording “guests” by “adults” and to add, for each service related to people, a selector of the number of children. It allows to correct the non-inclusion of the number of children in the number of guests (Example: problem with the calculation of the number of breakfasts that does not allow for the direct inclusion of children) and it allows to have services dedicated only to children (like services with lower prices than for adults).

    – Possibility to create a hotel package by adding one or several services to a room.
    Example: The hotel of my client proposes “Step evening” which includes the room, dinner and continental breakfast for a reduced price. To enter it in “MPHB” plugin, I created a service “Step evening” with the reduced price and without the price of the room. Problem: the client can choose by mistake in “Reservation confirmation page/Choose additional services”, “Step evening” and “continental breakfast” while “Step evening” already includes the “continental breakfast”.

    – In back-end “Bookings/Calendar”, to replace the background color (white) of the weekends by another color to distinguish more easily these days from other days of the week.

    – For “MPHB PDF Invoices”, to write tax rates and amounts on invoices into a single table (usually at the bottom left). But this is the European standard and may not be practiced in other countries.

    – Possibility to add the public and secret keys for sandbox in payment gateways like Stripe with an error message if the sandbox mode is chosen and the corresponding keys have not been entered. This avoids errors and makes it easy to switch from one mode to another (sandbox/production).

    – In back-end “Bookings/Taxes and fees”, add the possibility to automatically calculate the tourist tax but it may be difficult to do because the calculation methods are certainly very different from one country to another.

    The plugin is very good, congratulations to the team. The suggestions are just to bring my little stone to the building.

    Thanks again!

    Yes, absolutly need different tax rates for different services. Tax percentages can be different according nature of sold service in many Countries.

    Hello, I am also interested in this setting because in Croatia, guests can choose from various types of tourist taxes.
    Thank you in advance for any reply.

    Hi Lélek, Could you please provide an example of how the guest can choose from various types of tourist taxes? Can the Services be used for this purpose indeed?

    Looking for different tax rate settings for different services.
    For example consumption tax (VAT) 10% on staying hotel works properly but other additional service item such as membership fee, which is no tax 0%, in line with Japanese tax law comes out but all imposed with 10% tax rate additionaly in this calculation by this system.
    I wish this system has the tax setting depends on items someday soon.

    Thanks.
