How do I add a Tourist tax that is not based on a percentage

In our village we are supposed to pay a fixed amount for every night that a person spends in our b&b. The tax modules that are available to Drupal Commerce however assume that taxes always are a based on a percentage of the price. It is not a problem for me to calculate the amount myself, but I cannot add those amounts manually ro the order. Any suggestions?

It sounds like to me, you want to add a flat shipping rule, and call the name of the flat shipping rule, tax, so to Drupal it will be shipping, but to the cart and the order it is a tax.

Thanks,

But this will add an amount to the order price. And we do not want the end price to change, that is the amount we agreed with the customer. We just need (legally) to show the tax components of the price. That means that we first have to show (and subtract) the amount of tourist tax that we have to pay for that visit and use the remaining amount for the vat-calculation. But as said, this doesnt change the total amount on the order.

Adding another VAT-tax (differently named of course) would be the solution, but this tourist tax is based on the number of nights, not on a percentage.
