2026年版团队旅游合同（示范文本）将推行使用

Core Viewpoint - The Ministry of Culture and Tourism, along with the State Administration for Market Regulation, has announced the implementation of the 2026 version of the team tourism contract (model text), which will be enforced nationwide starting March 31, 2026, to enhance tourism service quality and protect the rights of tourists and travel agencies [1][2]. Group 1: Contract Details - The 2026 version includes six model texts: "Team Domestic Tourism Contract," "Team Outbound Tourism Contract," "Mainland Residents Traveling to Taiwan Contract," "Domestic One-Day Tour Contract," "Domestic Travel Agency and Local Reception Agency Contract," and "Study Tour Contract" [1]. - The revisions focus on strengthening safety guarantees for travel agencies, clarifying rules for shopping activities and additional paid tourism projects, improving the protection of tourists' rights, enhancing personal information protection, and regulating study tour activities organized by travel agencies [1][2]. Group 2: Background and Rationale - The previous model texts were issued by the former National Tourism Administration and the former State Administration for Industry and Commerce between 2013 and 2014, which have become outdated due to rapid market developments [2]. - Changes in tourist travel demands and consumption habits have led to new requirements for the standardization and clarity of tourism contracts, emphasizing safety and service quality [2]. - The revision incorporates practical experiences from the use of team tourism contracts and has gathered opinions from various stakeholders, including consumer protection associations, travel agencies, and legal experts [2].
