In short
VISITAX is Mexico's official Quintana Roo tourist tax — a mandatory, per-person fee that every foreign visitor pays once per trip. It applies across the state, including Cancún, Tulum, Playa del Carmen and Cozumel, and is verified by a QR-code scan when you depart from Cancún (CUN) or Tulum. Vistumo handles the payment and emails your official QR-code voucher within minutes.
