Urayasu City, home to Tokyo Disneyland Resort (TDR), is planning a policy to increase the accommodation tax. The additional revenue is intended to offset the financial pressures posed by hosting TDR in the city. While the increase may impose a heavier burden on tourists and local businesses, it is seen as necessary to maintain the city's infrastructure and facilities, as well as to contribute to the local economy.

In Japan, municipal governments have the power to enact accommodation taxes. With hospitality being a significant sector for many cities like Urayasu, these taxes essentially function as a tool for local development. Local citizens generally accept such measures as it helps in maintenance and development of the city's infrastructure, and they expect efficient use of these funds.

In countries like the US or EU, the collection of hospitality taxes, often referred to as a "tourist tax", is also commonplace. Funds gained are typically allocated towards tourism-related infrastructure and services. However, in these regions, there would likely be more intense scrutiny and debate around the economic implications of such a tax increased.
