Part of the long-delayed levy will be used to provide health and accidental insurance cover for tourists during their stay in the country, informed tourism minister Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn.
Travellers arriving at airports will have to pay 300 baht (S$12) for each trip, while those entering via land borders and seaports will be levied 150 baht each.
The Thai government expects to collect about 3.9 billion baht from the entry fee this year.
