Boisbriand, Canada Short-Term Rental Regulations: A 2026 Guide For Airbnb Hosts

Boisbriand's 2026 short-term rental rules, including the 130 zoning by-laws of 2023, the 5,000 square metre lot floor, permits, fees and the three taxes.

Réponse rapide : les locations de courte durée sont-elles légales à Boisbrand ?

Almost certainly not, unless your lot is unusually big. Boisbriand prohibits principal-residence rentals outright in its duplex, triplex, multifamily and mixed residential zones, and allows them in single-family zones only on lots of at least 5,000 square metres. You also need a $175 municipal occupancy certificate and a CITQ registration number.

Do you own a place in Boisbriand, Canada and you're weighing whether to put it on Airbnb or Vrbo? Well, the good news is that Quebec law is on your side in principle, since no municipality is allowed to flatly ban you from renting out your own principal residence for stays of 31 days or less. The bad news is that the same law left one door open for cities that want to push back, and Boisbriand walked straight through it in the spring of 2023.

What the council did is unusual enough to be worth spelling out up front. On 2 May 2023 it adopted 130 separate zoning by-laws, one for each residential zone, and together they prohibit a principal-residence establishment outright in every duplex, triplex, multifamily and mixed residential zone in town, while allowing one in a single-family zone only where the lot measures at least 5,000 square metres. The single-family zone grids I went through set their own minimum lot area at 350 to 500 square metres, so the tourist-accommodation floor sits at roughly ten times the lot the zoning otherwise asks for. On paper the use is permitted; on the ground, almost no ordinary house in Boisbriand clears the bar.

So let's walk through what it takes to do this properly here: which of the three tourist accommodation classes your plan falls into, what the city and the province each charge, the three taxes that attach to a night's stay, how hard the rules get enforced, and who to call when you get stuck. Boisbriand sits in the MRC de Thérèse-De Blainville in Quebec's Laurentides region, a little north of Montreal, and every figure below comes from its own by-laws or from a Quebec government page, checked in July 2026, with a note wherever something is still moving. Before you spend a dollar on any of it, run the property through BNBCalc first.

What are Short-Term Rental (Airbnb, VRBO) Regulations in Boisbriand, Canada?

Modelling the numbers only helps once you know which box your plan sits in, and that's the first thing to sort out here, because Boisbriand doesn't have one short-term rental rule. It has three, and they live in different sub-sections of the same zoning by-law.

Underneath all three sits provincial law, and Quebec's Tourist Accommodation Act defines a tourist accommodation establishment in section 2 as one offering at least one unit to tourists, for payment, for a period not exceeding 31 days. Section 4 then makes operating one subject to registration with the Minister, while section 5 requires the application to carry a document from a competent authority establishing that the operation doesn't contravene the local planning by-laws.

That last requirement is the hinge of this whole guide, since Quebec won't register you until Boisbriand signs off on the zoning, so the city rule comes first in practice even though the province issues the number, and no amount of goodwill at the CITQ moves that order.

Boisbriand's rule is Règlement RV-1441 sur le zonage, in the codification current to 24 September 2025. Tourist accommodation appears there as a complementary use to a residential use, in the same chapter as home offices and home daycares, which tells you how the city thinks about it. Three classes are defined, and the definitions were rewritten in 2023 by Règlement RV-1441-087 to match the provincial statute word for word.

ClassWhat it isWhere it's allowed in Boisbriand
Établissement de résidence principaleYour own principal residence, let by a single reservation to one person or one group of related persons at a time, no mealsEverywhere except residential zones, plus single-family (R-1) zones on a lot of at least 5,000 m² (arts. 64.3, 64.4)
Résidence de tourismeA furnished house or apartment with self-catering that is not your principal residenceSingle-family (R-1) zones only, on a lot of at least 5,000 m², one per lot (arts. 64.1, 64.2)
Gîte touristiqueA bed and breakfast where you live on site and serve breakfastDetached single-family homes in R-1, C-2, P-3 and A zones, up to 5 let rooms (arts. 63, 64)

Notice what the middle row does to the classic investor plan. A whole unit you rent out by the night while you live somewhere else is a résidence de tourisme, and Boisbriand keeps that class inside single-family zones on a 5,000 square metre lot, one to a lot, with signage banned apart from the ministry's own plaque. Condos, plexes and rental apartments don't sit in single-family zones, so the class can't reach them and there's no route to a legal nightly rental in one at any price. No permit unlocks it.

The gîte route is the one people overlook, though it's a genuinely different business. You live in the house, you serve breakfast, and you let at most five rooms besides your own. Article 64 then piles on fire and layout conditions that a normal spare bedroom won't meet:

  • A minimum of 8 square metres per let room, and no bedrooms in the basement or the cellar.
  • A full lockable bathroom on the same floor as any let room, plus a door on each room that locks from the inside.
  • A working smoke alarm in every let room, an extinguisher on each floor that carries one, and emergency exit lighting on every floor for power cuts.
  • One parking space for each room you let, without blocking the front entrance.

Make sure you read that article in full before you commit, because you'll be paying for the alarms, the extinguishers and the exit lighting long before you take a single booking.

Starting a Short-Term Rental Business in Boisbriand

Unfortunately for most people reading this, those three classes add up to no business at all in Boisbriand. The city didn't get there by accident either, so the mechanism is worth understanding, because it explains why the answer is unlikely to change soon.

Section 23 of the Tourist Accommodation Act says no municipal by-law adopted under the planning statute may prohibit a principal-residence establishment. Then it gives one exception: the ban is allowed where the provision arrives through a Division V amending by-law, and it sweetens that route by deeming every provision to have been validly petitioned from every eligible zone and cutting the referendum-application threshold by half.

Boisbriand used exactly that route. Its public notice of 21 June 2023 records that council adopted Règlements RV-1441-086-001 through RV-1441-086-130 on 2 May 2023, opened a register on 30 May for qualified voters to demand a referendum, reached the required number of signatures in none of the affected sectors, and saw the whole package come into force on 14 June 2023 once the MRC certified it.

Splitting the change into 130 by-laws is what made it survivable. Each notice covers one zone and its neighbours, so the signature threshold stays small and local: thirteen signatures would've forced a referendum in zone R-1 102, and twenty-four in zone R-2 113. Nobody in any sector reached the number on a single Tuesday in May, and the rules have stood since.

So here's what's left on the table, assuming you already own something in town:

  • A house on 5,000 square metres or more, in an R-1 zone. That's the only shape that clears article 64.4 or article 64.2. For scale, zone R-1 209 sets its own minimum lot at 500 square metres with 15 metres of frontage, and it's the sole zone where the by-law lets a principal-residence establishment sit in an accessory building rather than the main house.
  • A gîte touristique, if you live in a detached house in an R-1, C-2, P-3 or A zone and you're willing to run a breakfast service.
  • Stays of 32 nights and up, which fall outside the Tourist Accommodation Act altogether and therefore outside all of this. Do count carefully, since the provincial threshold reads "not exceeding 31 days" and a 31-night booking is still tourist accommodation.

Everything else is a dead end, and the honest advice is to stop before the money goes in. Hosts who want a Quebec market where a whole unit can legally go up by the night tend to look at towns that took the opposite view of section 23, so our Chambly short-term rental guide, the Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu guide and the Granby guide are the useful next reads if you're still choosing a market rather than defending a property you already hold.

Short-Term Rental Licensing Requirement in Boisbriand

Say your lot does clear 5,000 square metres, or you're going the gîte route instead. You'll then need two permissions from two different governments, and the order matters more than the paperwork does, because the municipal one comes first.

Under Règlement RV-1444 sur l'émission des permis et certificats, article 12(5°), you have to hold a certificat d'occupation before you set up any kind of tourist accommodation establishment. The 2026 tariff by-law, RV-1789, puts the fee at $175.00 in article 122, and the certificate itself runs for five years before you have to renew it, or sooner if you move or if anything you told the city changes.

The Service d'urbanisme uses that one application to check the zoning, the fire-safety rules and the sewer-discharge rules together, and since everything you file has to be in French, do budget time for translation if your documents aren't.

Article 26 of the same by-law then adds conditions specific to tourist accommodation, and they're the ones that catch people. You'll have to show the city your provincial registration number where one is required, while a co-owner also needs either the co-ownership declaration provisions that permit tourist accommodation or the syndicate's prior authorisation, and a tenant needs a lease clause allowing it or the owner's written authorisation instead. Be aware that a condo board or a landlord can end your plan right here, without the city ever refusing you.

The provincial permission is the registration certificate issued by the Corporation de l'industrie touristique du Québec. The CITQ's own registration page is blunt about sequencing, since you have to get a signed Notice of Compliance from the municipality first. Without that document from the competent authority, the CITQ says flatly, your application cannot be processed at all. Registration then lasts 12 months and has to be renewed, and the rights it confers cannot be transferred, so a buyer inherits nothing and applies fresh.

Annual fees, set by the Tourist Accommodation Regulation and effective 1 January 2026, are $54 for a principal-residence establishment, $156 for a general tourist accommodation establishment and $131 for youth accommodation.

Registration also brings display duties that changed this year. The certificate goes up in view of the tourist clientele at the establishment's main entrance, and the registration number has to appear in all your advertising, on any website of your own whether or not it takes bookings, and, since 9 April 2026, on social media too. A transactional listing must show the expiry date as well. Don't forget the insurance line either, because the CITQ asks for proof of civil liability cover of $2,000,000 per event with the application.

Required Documents for Boisbriand, Quebec Short-Term Rentals

Since two files have to be assembled and one of them gates the other, it saves a round trip to gather both at once. On the municipal side, article 21.30 of RV-1444 asks only for the completed application form, a plan showing where the premises sit inside the building, an interior layout plan of those premises, and a copy of the lease where there is one, and the city publishes both the form and the list of required documents.

The provincial file is the longer one, though, and the CITQ won't open it without all of the following:

  • The signed Notice of Compliance from the Service d'urbanisme, which is the document section 5 of the Act demands.
  • Proof of ownership or occupancy, meaning the property title, the municipal tax account or the rental agreement.
  • Civil liability insurance of $2,000,000 per event. Do check that your policy actually covers paying guests, because a standard homeowner's policy usually doesn't.
  • Exterior and interior photographs of the establishment, ready to be shared on a booking platform.
  • Third-party consent where it applies, meaning the relevant clauses of the co-ownership declaration or the lease, or a signed authorisation from the co-ownership syndicate, the landlord or the tenant.

Two changes land on 1 September 2026, and the Ministère du Tourisme announced both on 25 March 2026. Registering or renewing a principal-residence establishment will take two proofs of principal residence rather than one, which the ministry frames openly as an anti-fraud measure. The owner's or the syndicate's consent will then be needed at every annual renewal instead of only at first registration, on standardised forms that the ministry is introducing to speed the checks up.

Keep in mind that both may reach you earlier if your registration expires on or shortly after that date, since renewals go in during the 60 days before expiry.

Boisbriand Short-Term Rental Taxes

Assuming you get through both files and are able to start hosting, there's still tax to deal with, and three separate charges attach to a single night. They stack in a fixed order, which matters because the second and third are calculated on a base that includes the first.

ChargeRateCollected by
Tax on lodging3.5% of the price of the overnight stayThe platform where it's registered, otherwise you
GST5%You if registered, otherwise the platform
QST9.975% of the price excluding GSTYou if registered, otherwise the platform

Nothing in the city's 2026 tariff by-law adds a lodging tax on top of those three, so what a guest pays over the nightly rate is entirely provincial and federal.

Provincial Taxes

The tax on lodging applies because Boisbriand sits in the Laurentides, one of the 21 tourism regions where Revenu Québec levies it. It reaches principal-residence establishments and general tourist accommodation establishments alike, wherever a unit is offered to tourists for 31 days or less on a regular basis and its availability is public.

Revenu Québec treats any unit listed through a platform that's registered for the tax as offered on a regular basis, so listing on Airbnb settles that question by itself. The exemptions are narrow, reaching only camp sites, youth accommodation units, stays of six hours or less or of more than 31 consecutive days, and a genuinely occasional rental such as once a year during a festival or a school break.

Who hands the money over depends on how you take bookings. Where you rent only through platforms that are registered for the tax on lodging and that receive all the amounts paid, you aren't required to register for the tax yourself. Take one direct booking, though, or use a platform that doesn't receive the full consideration, and the duty to register, collect and pay it over lands back on you.

Revenu Québec publishes the list of registered platform operators, last updated 29 April 2026, and it includes Airbnb Ireland since 2017, HomeAway since 2020, Booking.com since March 2024, Agoda since October 2025 and Trip.com Travel since March 2026. Do check that list against the channels you plan to use, because the relief only follows the registration.

The mechanics of billing are fussier than the rate suggests. The 3.5% is calculated only on the price of the overnight stay, so breakfast, parking and anything else bundled in come out of the base first. GST and QST are then calculated on the total including the lodging tax, which is why Revenu Québec's own worked example bills a $135 room with $20 of parking at $183.65 rather than at the sum you'd get by taxing each line on its own.

Federal Taxes

GST sits at 5% on the selling price, with QST at 9.975% on the price excluding GST, and Revenu Québec administers both inside Quebec. You have to register for the two of them once your total worldwide taxable supplies, including those of your associates, exceed $30,000 in a calendar quarter or across the four preceding quarters, and below that you're a small supplier, so the platform handles it for you.

One federal rule deserves more attention than it usually gets in a town with rules like Boisbriand's, though. Section 67.7 of the Income Tax Act denies expense deductions outright for a non-compliant short-term rental, which it defines as one operated where short-term rentals aren't permitted, or one that fails to meet all applicable registration, licensing and permit requirements, and the denial is proportional, running on non-compliant days over total short-term rental days.

Read that against a zoning by-law that forbids the use across most of the city and you'll see why it bites: an unlawful Boisbriand listing doesn't merely risk a fine, it also loses the mortgage interest, the utilities and the cleaning costs as deductions against the income it earned. That income, of course, stays fully taxable.

Quebec Wide Short-Term Rental Rules

Those tax rules apply province-wide, and so does the enforcement architecture sitting above Boisbriand's by-laws. Quebec rebuilt the whole framework in 2022 and has tightened it every year since, which is why guidance written before 2023 tends to be wrong in both directions.

The Tourist Accommodation Act put the real pressure on platforms rather than on hosts. Section 20.1 bars a digital accommodation platform from carrying an offering that lacks the establishment's registration number or the certificate's expiry date, and from enabling a rental contract for a stay of under 32 days at an unregistered establishment. Section 20.2 goes further and makes the platform verify that the number belongs to that establishment and that the registration is in force.

Section 21.1 backs it with a public register carrying each establishment's class, number, issue and expiry dates and current status, which any neighbour can search.

The fines are serious, and they scale. Operating without registration, or putting a false, inaccurate or expired registration number in an offering or an advertisement, draws $2,500 to $25,000 for a person and $5,000 to $50,000 for anyone else under section 28. Operating after a registration has been refused, suspended or cancelled runs $5,000 to $50,000 and $10,000 to $100,000 under section 29.

Then section 30 doubles both the minimum and the maximum for a second offence and triples them thereafter, so a host who keeps going after a first ticket is looking at a five-figure floor rather than a five-figure ceiling. The second one hurts.

Two waves of regulatory change landed in 2026. From 9 April 2026, the duty to state your registration number and establishment name in advertising extended to social media, operators running several registered establishments may say that they're registered instead of listing every number, and certificate display moved to the establishment's main entrance in view of guests. From 1 September 2026 come the two proofs of principal residence and the annual third-party consent described earlier.

The ministry also reported that compliance among offers listed on Airbnb and Vrbo simultaneously reached 87.6% in 2025, up from 34.5% in 2022, which tells you the platform-verification model worked.

Does Boisbriand Strictly Enforce STR Rules?

Given a compliance rate that moved from a third to nearly nine tenths in three years, the honest answer is yes, although the enforcement to worry about is provincial rather than municipal. Section 55 of the Act hands inspections and investigations to the Minister of Revenue, and Revenu Québec runs them across the tourism regions with real inspectors and real tickets.

The numbers are published quarterly, which is unusual and useful. In the Laurentides region alone, for the quarter to 30 June 2026, Revenu Québec logged 50 inspections, found 25 of them non-compliant, served 23 tickets, won 25 convictions and imposed $101,836 in fines. Province-wide over the 2025-2026 fiscal year it ran 2,720 inspections, served 1,134 tickets, won 874 convictions and imposed $3,632,677. So roughly half of everything it inspected in the Laurentides that quarter failed. That is not a paper regime.

Boisbriand's own tools are smaller, yet they compound. Under chapter XV of the zoning by-law, anyone who contravenes it, or permits or tolerates a contravention, faces $500 to $1,000 for a first offence as a person and $1,000 to $2,000 on a repeat, with a company at $1,000 to $2,000 and $2,000 to $4,000.

Article 365 is the one to watch out for, because each day the offence continues counts as a separate offence. It accrues. Paying doesn't excuse you from complying either, and the city may also reach for the planning statute's injunction remedies, with the municipal inspector acting as the competent authority and prosecuting in the Cour municipale.

Then there's the route a complaint usually takes, which isn't a zoning complaint at all. Règlement RV-1355-2 sur la qualité de vie makes any noise that disturbs the peace of the neighbourhood a prohibited nuisance, and it sets measurable limits on top of that general rule. In practice that means a disturbing noise measured at the property line may exceed the background by no more than 14 dB(A) by day and 12 by night under five minutes, 9 and 7 between five and thirty minutes, and 5 and 3 beyond half an hour.

Fines start at a $100 minimum and reach $2,000 on a repeat, each day counts separately again, and the court can order the nuisance removed at your cost. So a guest with a speaker on a Saturday night is how most of these files open. That's the usual first domino.

One more thing about the city's public information, since it'll mislead you if you take it at face value. Boisbriand's own résidence de tourisme page still defines the use by reference to a classification certificate under the Loi sur les établissements d'hébergement touristique, the statute Quebec repealed back in 2022, and it lists no zones, no conditions and no fees. As of July 2026 it tells you to phone the Service d'urbanisme, which is genuinely the right move, but don't read the silence as permission.

How to Start a Short-Term Rental Business in Boisbriand

Given how much of the above is a filter rather than a form, the order below is designed to fail you early and cheaply. Working through it out of sequence is how people end up paying fees on an application that was never going to be granted.

  1. Measure the lot before anything else. Start with the land register or your municipal tax account. Under 5,000 square metres in a residential zone and you're finished, whichever class you had in mind.
  2. Confirm the zone. The 5,000 square metre allowance only exists in single-family R-1 zones. R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5 zones prohibit a principal-residence establishment outright, and a résidence de tourisme was never permitted in them.
  3. Read your lease or co-ownership declaration. You'll need a clause permitting tourist accommodation, or written authorisation from the landlord or the syndicate, before the city will issue anything.
  4. Call the Service d'urbanisme on 450 435-1954 and ask for the Notice of Compliance for a tourist accommodation establishment. This is the conversation where you find out the real answer for your address.
  5. File the occupancy certificate application and pay the $175. Bring the form, a plan locating the premises in the building, an interior layout plan and the lease if there is one, all in French.
  6. Register with the CITQ once the Notice of Compliance is signed. Budget $54 or $156 a year depending on class, plus the $2,000,000 liability policy, and expect to renew every 12 months.
  7. Put the number everywhere. In every advertisement, on any website of your own, on social media, and with the expiry date on any transactional listing. The certificate goes up at the main entrance in view of guests.
  8. Sort the tax position before the first booking. Check your platforms against Revenu Québec's registered list, register for the tax on lodging if any channel falls outside it, and watch the $30,000 threshold for GST and QST.
  9. Diarise the renewals. The CITQ registration runs 12 months, the municipal occupancy certificate five years, and from September 2026 each renewal needs fresh third-party consent.

Who to Contact in Boisbriand about Short-Term Rental Regulations and Zoning?

Most of those steps run through one of four offices, and knowing which one owns your question saves a lot of transferred calls.

Service d'urbanisme, Ville de Boisbriand answers zoning, the Notice of Compliance and the occupancy certificate, so it's the first call and usually the decisive one.

  • Address: Hôtel de ville, 940, boulevard de la Grande-Allée, Boisbriand (Québec) J7G 2J7
  • Phone: 450 435-1954
  • General email: [email protected], and the department itself is reached through the city's contact form, since no direct departmental address is published
  • Counter hours: Monday 8:15 to 16:15, Tuesday 8:15 to 17:00, Wednesday 8:15 to 19:00, Thursday 8:15 to 17:00, Friday 8:00 to 16:00
  • Bylaw texts: the city's searchable bylaw repository carries the full consolidated text of everything in force

Corporation de l'industrie touristique du Québec handles registration, renewals and the certificate itself, and it's the only body that can issue you a number.

Revenu Québec owns the tax on lodging, GST and QST registration, and every inspection and prosecution under the Tourist Accommodation Act, so its tax on lodging section carries the registration routes and the current forms. It's also where a neighbour would report you.

Finally, the Régie intermunicipale de police Thérèse-De Blainville takes the after-hours calls, including the noise complaint that starts most enforcement files, on 450 435-2421. In an emergency it's 911.

What Do Airbnb Hosts in Boisbriand on Reddit and Bigger Pockets Think about Local Regulations?

Since a call to that police line is how neighbours here tend to express an opinion, it's fair to ask what hosts themselves are saying. I'd rather be straight with you than invent a consensus, so here it is: I found no Boisbriand-specific host discussion I could actually read. BiggerPockets returns a 403 to automated access and carries no thread on this city that I could reach, and Reddit's platform terms don't permit the commercial data use a survey like that would need, so nothing below is offered as forum sentiment.

What can be said comes from sources that publish their numbers, and it all points one way:

  • The province's own compliance figure moved from 34.5% in 2022 to 87.6% in 2025 for offers listed on both Airbnb and Vrbo. Whatever hosts think of the rules, most stopped ignoring them once platforms had to verify registration numbers.
  • Half of everything Revenu Québec inspected in the Laurentides last quarter came back non-compliant, which suggests the remaining holdouts in this region are still being found.
  • Nobody in Boisbriand signed the registers in May 2023. Across 130 separate opportunities, in sectors where thirteen to twenty-four signatures would've forced a vote, the thresholds went unmet. Read that either as quiet consent or as nobody noticing, but the practical result is the same.
  • The mayor put the city's position on the record in the April 2023 communiqué announcing the freeze, framing the work as finding a balance between tourism supply and "la préservation de la quiétude des citoyens". Council had already moved in March 2023 to freeze new authorisation certificates so that none would be granted before the new rules took effect.

If you want the wider picture before deciding where to buy instead, the best Airbnb markets in Canada ranking is a faster way to compare than working through provincial statutes one town at a time.

It's easy to read rules like these as hostility to tourism, and they usually aren't that at all. A council that writes a 5,000 square metre lot minimum into 130 by-laws in a single sitting has decided its housing stock is worth more as housing than as inventory, and it has taken the trouble to do that through the one procedure the provincial statute expressly leaves open. Wherever you're buying, the question to ask early isn't whether a place allows short-term rentals. It's how much work the municipality has already put into making its answer stick.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you legally run an Airbnb in Boisbriand in 2026?

Only in narrow circumstances. Boisbriand prohibits a principal-residence establishment outright in its duplex, triplex, multifamily and mixed residential zones, and permits one in a single-family zone only where the lot measures at least 5,000 square metres. A résidence de tourisme, meaning a whole furnished home you don't live in, is confined to single-family zones on the same 5,000 square metre minimum, one per lot. Anything else needs stays of 32 nights or longer.

How much does it cost to register a short-term rental in Boisbriand?

Two payments. The municipal occupancy certificate costs $175 under the city's 2026 tariff by-law and lasts five years. The provincial registration through the CITQ costs $54 a year for a principal-residence establishment or $156 a year for a general tourist accommodation establishment, and it has to be renewed every 12 months. On top of both, the CITQ asks for proof of civil liability insurance of $2,000,000 per event.

What are the penalties for an unregistered short-term rental in Quebec?

Operating without registration, or advertising a false, inaccurate or expired registration number, carries a fine of $2,500 to $25,000 for a person and $5,000 to $50,000 for a company under section 28 of the Tourist Accommodation Act. Operating after a refusal, suspension or cancellation runs $5,000 to $50,000 and $10,000 to $100,000. Those minimums and maximums double for a second offence and triple thereafter. Boisbriand can separately fine a zoning breach $500 to $1,000, per day.

Do Airbnb and Vrbo collect Quebec taxes for hosts in Boisbriand?

Usually, though the relief is conditional. Where you rent only through platforms registered for the tax on lodging that receive all amounts paid, you don't have to register for the 3.5% tax yourself. Airbnb Ireland, HomeAway, Booking.com, Agoda and Trip.com Travel all appear on Revenu Québec's registered list as of April 2026. Take a direct booking, or use a channel outside that list, and the duty to register, collect and pay it over falls back on you.

Does Boisbriand charge a municipal accommodation tax?

No. Nothing in the city's 2026 tariff by-law adds a lodging tax, so the only accommodation-specific charge on a night's stay is Quebec's 3.5% tax on lodging, which applies because the city sits in the Laurentides tourism region. GST at 5% and QST at 9.975% then apply on a base that includes the lodging tax. The city's own charge is the $175 occupancy certificate, a permit fee rather than a tax on bookings.
