Package holidaymakers to Tunisia will have to pay a tourist tax of up to £30 from 1 November.
Visitors aged 12 and over will pay up to 12 dinars (£3) per night, depending on the official star rating of the property they are staying in.
The charge is applicable to visitors staying up to 10 nights and must be paid at the hotel reception.
The tax starts at 4 TND (£1) per night for a two-star property, 8 TND (£2) per night for a three-star and 12 TND (£3) per night for a four- and five-star property.
The tax has come into effect immediately for people who are not on package holidays. It will apply to all foreign visitors from November 1, 2024, irrespective of when they booked the holiday.
The tourist tax replaces Tunisia’s hotel tax, of 2 TND for guests in a three-star property and 4 TND for guests staying in a four- or five-star property.
The Tunisian Government said: “The aim of this tax is to require foreign visitors to cover for their fair share when consuming or using subsidised products and services in Tunisia.”
Until 1 November, the hotel tax will be application to package holidaymakers.
