Can I get a VAT-compliant invoice for a crypto hotel payment?

The hotel issues the VAT invoice for the accommodation (they charge local VAT). trip1 issues a VAT-compliant invoice for its service fee in the EU.

Updated July 12, 2026

In short

  • The hotel issues the VAT invoice for the accommodation itself, because they charge local VAT. Ask reception at check-out.
  • trip1 issues its own VAT-compliant invoice (in the EU) for its service fee - downloadable from My Bookings.
  • Paying in crypto doesn't change VAT treatment. CoinGate converts to fiat before settlement, so the invoice shows fiat amounts with VAT broken out normally.

Who issues which invoice

For the hotel stay

The hotel is the taxable service provider. They issue the VAT invoice at their local VAT rate. Ask reception at check-out with your company name, address, and VAT/tax number.

For the trip1 service fee

trip1 issues an EU VAT-compliant invoice for its own service fee. Download it from My Bookings, or contact support if the booking was made as a guest.

What to include on the hotel's VAT invoice

  • Your company's legal name, address, and VAT/tax number.
  • The hotel's legal name, address, and VAT number.
  • Stay dates, room description, net amount, VAT rate and VAT amount, gross total.
  • Invoice number and date of issue.

Does crypto payment affect VAT?

No. CoinGate converts crypto to the hotel's fiat currency before settlement, so from the hotel's accounting side it's a normal fiat payment. VAT is charged and invoiced the same way as any other payment method.
