The tourism ministry has proposed a 450-baht fee per foreign visitor, approved in principle by the National Tourism Policy Committee. Rules on collection, disbursement and use of the money are still being drafted, followed by public hearings before cabinet. No start date is given. Tourism-facing SMEs (hotels, tour operators, guesthouses) should watch whether it raises trip costs for visitors and budget for possible price questions. Separately, the government is looking at speeding up Cash Rebate payments to foreign film crews, which may matter to local film and production service providers.
