Thailand's Finance Ministry has temporarily halted a proposed 1,000-baht departure tax to sustain tourism momentum in the fourth quarter. Deputy Prime Minister Ekniti Nitithanprapas stated that the levy would impose too heavy a burden on airlines and travelers. The draft law, open for public consultation until October 29, would charge air passengers 1,000 baht each time they leave Thailand, with the potential to raise the rate to 5,000 baht. The ministry aims to assess conditions before proceeding, considering tourism's recovery and global conflicts' impact on airlines.
