Unified Tourism Ecosystem Modules
UTEM: one digital route for accommodation registration
UTEM is citytax's modular platform for public authorities. It registers accommodation, issues every unit a unique registration number (UPN), collects monthly guest statistics and supports tourist-tax administration. Owner, business and property data come from authoritative state registers, so every authority works from the same records.
- Single source of truth
- Qualified e-signature audit trail
- Aligned with Regulation (EU) 2024/1028
What UTEM covers
Registration and UPN
Hosts register online. Property and business data are pre-filled from state registers, and an approved unit receives a machine-readable Unique Property Number.
Review and compliance
Officers work through a municipality-scoped queue with SLA tracking. They can return applications for correction and suspend or revoke registrations. Final decisions are signed with a qualified e-signature.
Tourist tax
Municipalities set tourist-tax rates and tax agents per accommodation category and year, backed by the council decision.
Monthly statistics
Hosts and booking platforms report arrivals, overnight stays and guests' countries of origin by web form, CSV or API, with validation and duplicate checks.
Analytics and map
Dashboards and an interactive map at national, regional and community level. Analysts see the detail; the public sees anonymised figures.
Public verification and platform API
Anyone can check whether a registration number is valid. Booking platforms verify numbers and submit activity data machine-to-machine.
