Spain’s CCOO union proposes a €15 daily tourist tax in summer to reduce overcrowding and fund 40,000 public housing units.
The CCOO trade union proposes a €15 daily tourist tax on the Balearic Islands during peak summer months, up from €0.5 to €4, to deter overcrowding rather than raise revenue.
The measure, announced October 23, 2025, also calls for halting new tourist developments, replacing outdated facilities, and using tax funds to build 40,000 public housing units.
Additional steps include limiting cruise ships and high-season flights, controlling rental prices, and seizing unused properties.
The plan follows the rejection of a bill to double the top tax rate to €8 and aims to address housing shortages and environmental strain caused by mass tourism.
