Hi! My mom and son are traveling here on May 12. Do you know if the 300 baht tourist tax is in place now? Do you know how they accept payment if it is in place? I tried to google, but was not getting a straight answer.
Answer summary
There is currently no 300 baht tourist tax for travelers visiting Thailand. Although there was discussion about possible implementations, it has not been adopted. Visitors should complete the TDAC (Thai Digital Arrival Card) prior to arrival, as this program starts for travelers entering Thailand from May 1st. Other fees may be included in travel tickets, but no separate tourist tax applies.

That program starts for people entering on May 1st onward

Don't worry no tourist tax so nothing to pay only your electronic arrivals card within 3 days of your arrival.

There's NO 300 Thai baht tourist tax.

Such a proposed tax never has been adopted.

We wish your family members Safe travels 🙏🙏
