> Fees & Taxes setup in HBook – configure compulsory or optional fees and taxes applied to bookings in Maestrel’s WordPress plugin.

You will find the page to set **Fees** or **Taxes** in the menu **HBook > Fees.** A **fee** or a **tax** is compulsory and comes on top of the accommodation/extra service/reservation price. Our fee/tax section is highly flexible. You can set fees/taxes that are calculated using :

- [a fixed amount](https://maestrel.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HD/pages/33521985/Fees+and+Taxes#fixed-amount-fees)
- [a percentage](https://maestrel.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HD/pages/33521985/Fees+and+Taxes#percentage-fees)

The fees/taxes can be applied to:

- Accommodation prices
- Extra-services prices
- All prices

Fixed amount fees

There are different **types of fixed fees** that will lead to different price calculation:

- **per person:** you can set adult price and children price. It is charged only once
- **per person per day:** you can set adult price and children price. It will be multiplied by the number of nights
- **per accommodation:** it will be multiplied by the number of accommodation booked
- **per accommodation per day:** it will be multiplied by the number of accommodation booked and bythe number of nights
- **per booking:** it is charged once only

Depending on the type of fixed fee you choose, we automatically select where the price will be shown (included in the item price, added to the item price or added to the final price).

2. Set a **maximum amount**
3. Set if the fee calculated (accommodation price divided by number of persons and number of nights) should be **multiplied** by the number of adults/children/nights.
