Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
There is no separately confirmed universal scuba visitor tag to buy from the sources reviewed. Marine-park diving is controlled through local guidance/permits, and the operator should confirm its licensing and how fees are covered. Foreign private-vessel mooring/cruising permissions are a different category. Government exit charges depend on port, route, age and trip status; the published adult examples below are not a universal flat tourist tax. Prices are quoted in their listed original currencies without conversion. Confirm before purchase, especially where a source is an older leaflet. Marine park rules; Ferry charges.
