Abstract
As the global tourism industry continues to grow, concerns about its impact on the environment and local communities have increased. In response to these concerns, many destinations have implemented tourist taxes as a policy tool to manage the negative impacts of tourism on destinations and promote sustainable tourism. This chapter presents a systematic literature review on the relationship between tourist taxes and sustainability, using the Bibliometrix R software and a content analysis. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the existing research, identifying gaps in the literature and suggesting areas for future research. The results demonstrate two main categories, concerning demand and supply dimensions. The issue of sustainability is transversal to the articles analyzed, highlighting its evolution in a holistic way and encompassing the economic, social, and environmental pillars.
