Visitor levy web page goes live

A web page dedicated to the visitor levy is now available on the Council’s website. 

You’ll find key information about the legislation, the process so far and the next steps. The web page also contains a number of frequently asked questions and links to related external sites. 

The Council’s Sustainable Tourism Team Manager, Christie Hartley, said: “Over the coming months we will be keen to engage with as many people and organisations as possible around the possibility of a visitor levy within Orkney, and the launch of the dedicated web page is a key part of this process. 

“We would encourage people to have a look as it contains information that we know at this stage. Given that we have not yet begun our investigative work, there are many unknowns. However, these will become clearer as we progress, and the web page will be updated accordingly.”
