Why the recognition date for "Payment (OTA Collect)" is the "Checkout Date"

The recognition date is the date on which the service provided is confirmed (the date on which revenue should be recognized). For accommodation fees, the most common date of reference is the check-out date .

■ Why the check-out date is the recognition date

  1. Since the provision of accommodation services is completed at check-out, it is appropriate to recognize revenue at this point.

  2. Since the accommodation record is finalized on the check-out date, and no-shows, shortened stays, extended stays, and cancellations can occur, the amount and number of days are not finalized at the time of check-in.

  3. Accounting standards also generally recognize accommodation revenue on the "completion date". Under both International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and Japanese accounting standards, it is standard practice for hotel accommodation revenue to be recognized on the date the stay is completed .
