This payment is exempt from taxes and this kind trade means you pay for a tour to Peru with a tour agency outside Peru, you contributing less to Peruvian economy, of course by buying any tour or services outside Peru you will still be helping the Peruvian economy by providing work for people involved in the tourism industry developed in different regions of Peru.
