At the moment Booking.com only supports custom values for the property.
Custom values can be defined to specify specific values for this channel only. This will override the values you have set generally. Add the parameters one per line. Available parameters are:
 
PERMIT
 
Example:
 
PERMIT AB01244
 
This will send AB01244 as permit ID for this room to this channel instead of the one defined per property.
 
 
'''Taxes and fees - Values can be set for Property or Room.'''
 
Taxes and fees can apply per stay, per day, per person and night or as a percentage.
 
Examples:
 
CITYTAX -  citytax applies per stay
 
CITYTAXDAILY  - citytax applies per day
 
CITYTAXPERSONNIGHT - citytax  applies per person and night.
CITYTAXPERCENT - a percentage is added for citytax.
 
VATRATEPERCENT - will send the vat rate for your property.

'''4.1 Future Charges'''
 
The Booking.com Charges API allows setting date-based fees/taxes using '''FROM''' and '''TO'''.
 
'''Format:'''
<pre>
FEENAME=amount FROM=YYYY-MM-DD TO=YYYY-MM-DD
</pre>
 
'''Example:'''
<pre>
AIRPORTSHUTTLEFEE=12 FROM=2026-03-09 TO=2026-05-31
</pre>
 
The fee applies only within the defined date range. Outside this period, the previous value applies.
 
'''Notes:'''
 
* '''FROM''' is optional (defaults to today) 
* '''TO''' is optional (applies indefinitely if not set) 
* Both formats are supported:
<pre>
FEENAME 10
FEENAME=10
</pre>
 
'''Unsetting a charge:'''
<pre>
FEENAME=0 FROM=YYYY-MM-DD
</pre>
 
'''Rules:'''
 
* Charges cannot overlap 
* Avoid using past dates (may cause unexpected results) 
* On import, '''FROM''' is only set if it is in the future 
 
'''Booking.com UI behavior:'''
 
Updating charges may create duplicate entries instead of replacing existing ones.
 
Recommended flow:
1. Remove existing charges 
2. Sync 
3. Add new values
4. Sync again 
 
'''Bathroom Attributes:'''
 
If you want to send additional bathroom features you can add these manually: Copy from the list below and go to {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS)  PROPERTIES > ROOMS > SETUP
and paste the value into the Features box.
 
Bathroom can include attributes. 
Add the attributes' values as a single line in "Custom" in {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) > CHANNEL MANAGER > BOOKING.COM > SPECIFIC ROOM CONTENT. 
Use the context help {{#fas:question-circle}} for information.
