As of July 1st every visitor to Haiti will have to pay at the point of entry a 10-dollar, 10-euro, or 10-Canadian dollar tourism fee, announced the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Industries. According to the Ministry, this measure is aimed at "strengthening the promotion of tourism in Haiti".

This decision does not apply to children under 5 years old and those holding diplomatic or official passports.

This fee will be charged at every border, port, and airport.
