Legal Notice & Terms of Use

Last updated: February 2026

1. Service Publisher

TravelComparator.org is a free, independent travel information and calculation service designed for travelers worldwide. Published as an independent technology project dedicated to interactive travel simulators and comparators.

2. Web Hosting

The website is hosted on the infrastructure of Hostinger International Ltd (61 Lordou Vironos Street, 6023 Larnaca, Cyprus). All files are distributed via a highly secure pre-compiled static architecture.

3. Nature of Data & Disclaimer of Liability

Our budget calculators, currency converters, cost-of-living comparators, and customs allowance guides are provided for informational purposes only. Although our data undergoes rigorous monitoring across central banks, national tourism boards, and foreign affairs ministries, the publisher cannot be held liable for unexpected exchange rate fluctuations, sudden legislative or customs changes, or seasonal pricing shifts by local providers.

4. Partner Links & Affiliate Disclosure

To keep this service 100% free and registration-free, transparent partner or affiliate links to trusted tourism providers (notably uzitatravel.com for certified excursions, private airport transfers, and Sahara desert tours in Tunisia, as well as international eSIM and travel service providers) are offered to users at zero additional cost to the traveler.

5. Methodology for Calculating Budgets, Exchange Rates & Cost-of-Living Indices

Our platform provides seven interactive calculators covering seven major international destinations (Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Thailand, Egypt, Greece, and Turkey) and twenty-one reference cities (Tunis, Djerba, Sousse, Marrakech, Fez, Agadir, Algiers, Oran, Constantine, Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Cairo, Luxor, Hurghada, Athens, Santorini, Heraklion, Istanbul, Antalya, and Goreme).

Daily budget estimates (Backpacker / Economy, Standard / 3-star Comfort, and 4–5-star Luxury profiles) are calculated excluding international flights based on a weighted basket comprising accommodation, dining (local street food and sit-down restaurants), urban transport (metered taxis, ride-hailing apps, and public transit), cultural sightseeing, and a 10% safety buffer for contingencies. Exchange rates displayed for EUR, TND, MAD, DZD, THB, EGP, and TRY reflect 2026 reference market rates and do not constitute a binding contractual bank offer.

6. Customs Regulations, Non-Convertible Currencies & Baggage Allowances

Information regarding customs allowances (tobacco, cigarettes, alcohol, perfume, gifts, personal medication, and cash declaration thresholds) as well as strictly prohibited items (such as the ban on importing recreational drones without ministry permits in Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, and Algeria, or the ban on e-cigarettes/vapes in Thailand) is synthesized from official national customs publications in force in 2026.

Likewise, we remind travelers that the Tunisian Dinar (TND), Moroccan Dirham (MAD), and Algerian Dinar (DZD) are regulated, non-convertible currencies outside their respective national borders, whose physical import and export are strictly prohibited by law. Cabin and checked baggage dimensions and weights (for Tunisair, Nouvelair, Air France, Transavia, Royal Air Maroc, Air Algérie, Turkish Airlines, Ryanair, EasyJet, and Emirates) are provided for guidance: every passenger remains responsible for verifying the exact fare conditions printed on their airline ticket prior to departure.

7. Intellectual Property & Photo Credits

The website's software architecture, calculator source code, editorial guides, comparative tables, and structured databases are protected by intellectual property laws. Any unauthorized reproduction, automated scraping, or commercial reuse in whole or in part is strictly prohibited.
