Japan erwägt, die Ausreisesteuer für internationale Reisende noch stärker anzuheben als zuvor berichtet

>the LDP’s Research Commission for the Establishment of a Tourism Oriented Nation is now proposing a departure tax of **5,000 yen to be levied on travelers leaving Japan in business-class or higher seats.**

As the article points out

>an additional 4,000 yen is unlikely to dissuade anyone flying business class from traveling to Japan, and so the increased departure tax is unlikely to cause any decrease in the number of foreign tourists coming to Japan.
