The decree establishes a 30-day visa-free regime for citizens of Israel, Indonesia, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Turkey, and Japan, and introduces a simplified tourist visa process for 75 listed countries, requiring visa issuance within two working days without a tourism voucher. It mandates the launch of an electronic visa system by July 1, 2018, and restructures the National PR Center to promote tourism, funded by the non-budgetary Tourism Support Fund. The document grants tax and customs exemptions for thematic parks, hotels, and tourism-related imports until 2024, reduces the taxable base for entities investing in digital tourism services and public Wi-Fi, and authorizes a $200 million credit line for hotel infrastructure projects.
