Order dated July 12, 2025 No. 1879-r
In 2025, the amount of contributions to the personal liability fund for tour operators in the outbound tourism sector will be reduced and the deadline for their payment will be extended.
According to the signed order, the amount of such contributions has been reduced from 1% to 0.75% of the total price of a tourism product in the field of outbound tourism for 2024.
By law, these contributions are paid in equal installments no later than the 15th of each month following the previous calendar quarter. Now the payment deadline has been moved from July 15 and October 15, 2025 to January 15, 2026.
The decision is aimed at supporting representatives of the tourism industry in the context of restrictions caused by the geopolitical situation in the Middle East. The released funds will be used, among other things, to return money to tourists who paid for trips to countries where restrictions are in place due to security threats.
Similar measures, providing for a reduction in the amount of contributions to the personal liability fund of tour operators in the field of outbound tourism, were taken by the Government in 2021 and 2022 due to the threat of the spread of coronavirus, and then external sanctions pressure.
