Thailand claims that the proposed tourist tax will go into effect the next year.
Beginning in the middle of 2025, inbound travelers will be subject to a THB 300 tax. Sarawong Thienthong, Minister of Tourism and Sports, stated that Cabinet clearance is still needed."In January of next year, we will submit for approval after finalizing the details." "The first phase, which will be in effect for six months, will begin with air passengers." It will be expanded to include overland travelers after it is implemented at airports. Approximately 70% of visitors from other countries fly into Thailand. According to Sarawong, the system will allow online payments in advance.
