IATA TIDS (Travel Industry Designator Service) is a globally recognized identification program designed for travel agencies, travel consultants, and other intermediaries in the travel industry. It provides a unique identifier that enables seamless interaction between travel service providers and intermediaries, simplifying the booking and transaction processes while enhancing efficiency.
What is IATA TIDS?
IATA TIDS is a non-ticketing code issued by the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Unlike an IATA accreditation for ticketing agents, TIDS is specifically for businesses that do not issue airline tickets but act as intermediaries, such as tour operators, event planners, or travel consultants. This unique identifier allows travel suppliers like airlines, hotels, and car rental companies , to recognize and collaborate with these agencies globally.
