Hotel receipt FAQ
What should a hotel receipt include?
The hotel name, the guest, check-in/out dates, itemized room nights and fees, taxes, the total, and the payment method with a zero balance. Guests need this itemized "folio" for reimbursement.
Why is a hotel receipt called a folio?
A folio is the itemized guest account — room charges, taxes, and extras like parking or dining. An itemized folio is what employers and the IRS accept for travel expenses.
What tax is on a hotel receipt?
Lodging or occupancy tax, which is often higher than regular sales tax and varies by city. Set the correct rate in the generator; this example uses 12%.
