travel agency - under which category should it be labeled ?

1

Hello, I want to label my traveling agency but cannot, because there isn't such category under "shoping" or "traveling" categories.

Please advise or better - create a new type of "shop"/"travel" item.

Thanks in advance.

In the "edit" tab. Double click to place a node. Then go to the "Advanced" mode. Click "Add" to add a new tag, then type in "shop" as the key and "travel_agency" as the value.

For more features not listed in the presets see the wiki, or check the taginfo service.

Note that uncommon features may not yet be fully supported by all services and may not render on the map, and also note that the wiki also documents proposed features whereas taginfo tells you which tags are actually used. Specifically, shop=travel_agency is used over 3000 times in OSM, whereas the office=travel_agent tag which you will also find on the Wiki is used only 350 times.
