Through Interministerial Agreement No. 2025-013, issued by the Ministry of Production, Foreign Trade, Investments and Fisheries together with the Ministry of Tourism, it has been ordered:
- The suspension of deadlines and terms for the declaration and payment of the “Eco Delta” and “Potencia Turística” fees, effective September 15, 2025, for a period of two months.
- No interest or penalties will accrue on obligations that fall within the suspension period.
- The obligation to declare and pay remains in force; therefore, airlines must comply with these obligations once the suspension period ends or earlier, if lifted through a new ministerial agreement.
Reason for the suspension:
This measure is adopted as part of the merger by absorption of the Ministry of Tourism into the Ministry of Production, Foreign Trade, Investments and Fisheries, in order to ensure a proper administrative transition and guarantee due process in tax and collection procedures.
Summary of the fees:
- Eco Delta: Fee applied to international airline tickets issued in Ecuador, aimed at fostering air connectivity and promoting tourism.
- Potencia Turística: Contribution created to finance national tourism development and promotion projects.
