City of Oconto Room Tax
Effective January 1, 2024
The City of Oconto has implemented an 8% Room Tax beginning on January 1, 2024. The State of Wisconsin Statutes ensure that 70% of all room tax monies collected go towards promoting tourism in our City. The remaining 30% stays within the municipality to help fund our local municipal priorities. Tourism plays an important role in the City’s economy. Tourism & Economic Development Corporation for the Oconto Region (TEDCOR), as the tourism entity for the City, along with the City of Oconto Tourism Commission, take responsibility for overseeing expenditures of room tax dollars for tourism promotion and development, with a goal of attracting and generating paid overnight stays and putting heads in beds. As such, these room tax dollars provide for the continued planning and growth of the City as a tourist destination.
