Departure tax is a mandatory fee assessed upon leaving Belize. For travelers who are flying, this fee will likely already be included in the cost of your airline ticket but you'll want to double check with your carrier. If the fee is not included in the airline ticket cost, be prepared to pay it at the airport. At Philip Goldson International Airport (PGIA), the fee is around $55 USD for non-residents. If you are planning to depart Belize via the Mexico or Guatemala land border, the departure fee is around $20 USD. Cruise ship passengers are also subject to the departure tax upon leaving Belize, although, the cost is much lower at around $7 USD.
