The Ministry of
Natural Resources and Tourism (MNRT) foster transparency and engagement between
the Ministry and the Private Sector and wishes to provide information that is
critical for companies operating in the industry to efficiently run their
busienss and comply with applicable laws and regulations. To this end, the
Ministry has published the list of all taxes, levies, fees, and charges that
any business operating in Tourism is required to pay. It should be noted that
this list purposely excludes user charges (i.e. charges for using a particular
service, as these charges are optional to a business). This list will continue
to be updated as the regulatory environment changes. In addition, the Ministry
welcomes feedback from the Government and the Private Sector in the Industry on
areas that must be improved. This may include adding taxes, levies, and fees
that have not been included and/or removing those that are no longer
applicable. Feedback should be sent to the Director of Tourism at dt@mnrt.go.tz
